I've been seeing it pop up more in embedded/PC based devices. Seems to be replacing Windows XP and the other embedded Windows versions. Guess Microsoft wants too much for those licenses.

I was really surprised seeing KDE on the kiosk at our local unemployment office which is notorious for bad IT. That was 7 or 8 years ago.

Even bad IT people can still run Linux, though.

Edit: I run Arch BTW

I used to run 8.1 embedded as my desktop and honestly if my exoerience with it was anything to go by windows embedded has been only requiring more resources while losing features that make having a separate embedded edition make sense.
