   They do indeed.   
      
   And the figures speak very loudly that macOS usage for PERSONS still   
   outstrips Linux.   
      
      
      
   It still gets listed on two lines, but "OS X" and "macOS" both refer to   
   the Mac, and together, their share of global desktop usage is currently   
   over 11%, while Linux is at just under 4%.
