Then, not counting when I was freelancing, I've found three unicorns. There were so few Windows machines around it frequently became a problem where devs or support had to have someone in accounting test something.

Yeah I could see it if they were an all-Mac environment in a small office that was tiny enough to not need Active Directory. Even then Mac desktops have like 20% desktop market share so that’d still be impressive that you got a Mac environment 3 times in a row.

Linux has like 3% of the desktop market, that would be pretty close to unbelievable.
