Windows is number one because Microsoft knows marketing. OS/2 had the juggernaut of IBM behind it, which was a much bigger company than MS at the time and still couldn't topple them. How is fragmented Linux supposed to touch Microsoft? Their Linux is viral campaign seems to be working pretty well if you ask me. Face it, it's not about the product, it's about the marketing. People eat at McDonald's even though their food is crap. Microsoft has won.
