Linux has top market share in: supercomputers, embedded (e.g. TVs, media players, cameras, microwaves, GPS units, automobiles et al), infrastructure (e.g. routers, web servers, email servers), massively parallel server farms (e.g. Google, facebook), point-of-sale and mobile, and it has a major share (if not the major share) of enterprise servers.

Just about the only markets where Linux is not the dominant player are desktops (Windows) and tablets (iOS).
An average family might run one copy of Windows on their desktop computer, another on a laptop, one or two copies of iOS on their ipads, and perhaps a dozen copies of Linux on the remainder of their household electronics.
