GoogleRunsOnLinux™

Point out linux’s failings and you will no doubt be hit with 'well, GoogleRunsOnLinux™’, although this may be true, it’s only half true at best, as Google use linux internally and according to the GPL dont need to make public any changes they make to linux internally. The result, Google runs a version of linux so customized, it can barely be called linux. They use their own filesystem,webserver etc etc.

Google, however, thanks the greater linux community by not releasing a port of their web browser for linux , by killing of their picasa for linux effort (which was just a wine hack anyway),purchasing Gizmo5 and eliminating their linux offerings

Basically, Google is aware that desktop linux is irrelevant.
