There was that article on Salon.com, about Linux adoption in China.
Windows is widely used (and pirated) there. Unlike Linux, Windows is
localized and offers support for Chinese scripts.
On one hand, you'd think the Chinnese communist regime would support
'sharing with your neighbor' (yeah, "FSF are communists", that was an
old piece of FUD by Steve Balmer :) -- but on the other hand, what
could be better than pirating than ripping off the big bad
capitalist Microsoft?
