It certainly has changed. As I walked up to the rack, I could see the word
"Windows" only on the cover's of 2 magazines and the word "Microsoft" not
at all.

Now I'm certain several of the magazines with the term "PC" displayed
prominently are Windows centric, but it's not in your face like it was even
only a few months ago.

What I did see displays prominently were words like: Linux, Debian, Ubuntu,
Android, Nexus (4, 7, & 10), Raspberry Pi, etc. Nearly all on the top shelf.

I did see words like Mac, iPod, (other
Apple related). There were more of these than "Windows", but they were
mostly relegated to the 2nd shelf.

Interesting how things change...
