"Just a little more than a year since its launch, the iPad is already accounting for more views on website pages than longstanding open source operating system Linux.\nAccording to data from StatCounter Global Stats, iOS accounted for 1.17% of U.S. April browser visits to the more than 3 million websites that use the company's free web analytics service. Meanwhile, Linux only accounted for .71%. The iOS for iPad has also creeped past Linux in several other countries.\nStatCounter spokesperson Ronnie Simpson said that the company separates its \"desktop operating systems\" category from its \"mobile operating systems\" category depending on whether a device that uses it fits in a pocket. Until the iPad, iOS doesn't appear on the operating system graph at all. The visits currently represented in the iOS category only represent iPad use, not iPod or iPhone use. It looks like iPad traffic passed Linux traffic in the US sometime in December. \nPerformance monitoring company Pingdom, which first noted the stats in a blog post, pointed out that comparing iOS for iPad with desktop browsers is a stretch, and that tablet operating systems will likely constitute their own category in the near future. \nClassifications aside, the quick adoption of the iPad's browser is stunning considering that Linux's enthusiasts recently celebrated its twentieth anniversary."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
