Once upon a time Georgiana S. Trigg shaped the electrons to say...
would say that perhaps Linux's popularity is because of it's GUI, but then
Linux is a GUI? Since when? The only GUI I've ever seen on Linux is X -
*if* I install it.
I think Linux is popular because of the way it was developed, the history
it has. It is a product of the community, for the community. And Linus'
personality certainly has helped the popularity.
And more and more vendors are jumping on the Linux bandwagon - while
BSD/OS, and especially FreeBSD, aren't getting the same kind of vendor
support.
