Windows is the most used desktop operating system in the world, and to a large audience, it is almost synonym with the idea of having a computer. Linux could have been that popular if it had been properly marketed. That’s why, those that are acquainted with Linux and the fields where it operates (probably besides Android) are often called geeks.
