   So? How does that show Linux "leading the way"?   
      
   There's more to leading the way that simply being able to run an OS.   
      
   People don't use the OS: they use applications that can run on that OS.   
      
   And Apple has lead the way in making it possible to run a program   
   written for a different architecture on new one.   
      
   Motorola to PowerPC   
      
   PowerPC to Intel   
      
   And now, Intel to Apple Silicon.

   And yet you can never actually articulate something that either Linux or   
   Windows does better.
