This means something that has been true since before OS X was invented (circa 1990-ish) that hasn’t changed. Wanna game on the puter? Mac ain’t it. Mac never been it. Apple actually provides hardware that is gaming able. They don’t want to cater to gamers. They could do this easily and sell so many heavy duty desktop towers now. Why won’t they? They’d have to UN-propriatary themselves.

No, it doesn’t. Linux was always behind OSX on this survey. It only changed very recently, and because these survey results fluctuate from month to month, it wasn’t clear that it would remain this way.
