Dunno if these companies think Linux is better…it certainly is cheaper than windows licensing, so they profit more.

A good thing done for a bad/selfish reason, is still a good thing done.

Might be a marketing thing, since the big ones are all using some variant of Linux as an option on their handhelds now. I also only remember one using Windows as a positive part of their marketing, and haven't seen anything from them in a good while
