6. It's odd that Linux isn't more popular there. |

Lots of bootleg MS Windows there...I've seen XP selling on disk for 16 RMB (about $2.00). I suspect it is brand name visibility. Wouldn't surprise me to see Linux get more popular over time. MS doesn't seem to have a real problem with Chinese rips...I think they'd prefer to capture marketshare any way they can.
