   Is The Move To Linux Happening Primarily

   Jack Wallen is trying yet another distro which tries to make it easy   
   for Windows addicts to wean themselves off Mother Microsoft   
   .   
      
   He encountered an interesting glitch in the setup, which sounds   
   familiar to me from other ex-Windows-friendly Linux distros: he had   
   trouble entering his password because the keyboard layout defaulted to   
   German.   
      
   A lot of these distros are defaulting to non-English/American setups   
   nowadays; is this a sign that the primary movement away from Windows   
   and towards Linux is happening among non-English-speaking users?
