President Of Blizzard Responds To The Linux Petition, Petition Owner Creates Childish Response

Quoting: liamdawe
Quoting: Crazy PenguinLOL! Really? We are back on this now? 2% would mean a minimum 2 Million potential Linux customers (based on Steam numbers), which is quite a market share. But what do I care. Blizzards isn't making good games anymore.
*sigh*, going over this argument in IRC right now.

That 2% is an over-estimation, by a lot.

Lots of people (like me), already own their products. You can also be guaranteed a large portion supporting the petition and forum post also already sub to WoW/own other products by them.

The realistic number is far lower.
Yes, many people already own their products, but I suppose they intend to release more games in the future.
And more and more people are dumping Windows for good (thanks to Valve...). I have not touched a Windows PC for more than one year now.

Quoting: SnevSad response from the petition owner indeed.

About the 2%: according to W3schools [External Link] it's 5.4% (mobile systems not included), half of Mac's %. Not that it makes much difference to Blizzard right now.
But I suppose those statistics are only about people who visit the www.w3schools.com website.
It is quite scary that 85% of web developers run Windows anyway, that would explain why there are so many orrible websites around, with IE6 code, Flash, activeX etc...
