To be fair, 270 was the initial value for Windows, with Linux starting
out at just 6. By the end, Linux was up to 315, whilst Windows had an
improved (but still inferior) 303

Kinda amusing to think that in a few years time, you might have Windows
users who dual-boot to Linux for the games, huh? :)
