Nah. pie is not the ammo of choice in this group, it is the ammo of
choice in Bill Gate's neck of the woods. It seems that the favorite
ammo around here is monkey dung.

Trends to me are more interesting than a single month report - see
http://marketshare.hitslink.com/report.aspx?qprid=5. What's interesting
there is that the combination of Windows 2000 and XP has dropped 3.77%
and Windows Vista has increased by 3.74%. So Vista, as expected, is
taking shares from previous versions of Windows. OK, that's not really
very interesting.

But during the same period the combination of MacOS and MacIntel has
increased by 2.18% while other OS's (various *nix distributions?) have
lost 2.15% of the market share.

So Vista isn't really helping MS but isn't hurting them either. Mac on
the Intel platform (as that is 2.15% of the 2.18% increase in Mac share)
is helping Apple. But the Apple increase doesn't appear to be coming at
the expense of Microsoft but rather at the expense of the other OS's.

I've said it before. Apple is in a position to make big moves in the OS
market if they are bold enough to do what needs to be done.
Unfortunately, so far they do not appear to have the fortitude or desire
to make bold moves in that direction. Releasing Safari for Windows is
hardly a bold move. Instead, Apple appears happy to let the small gains
keep them going. But there is only so much "other" OS slice of pie to
eat. Eventually, if they want to keep growing, they must start taking
share from Windows. Something that they don't appear to be doing based
on the statistics tracked on that site.

Hi,

Thank you for this link.

What was XP's market share 5 months after its launch, say march 2002 ?

I like this: Windows 98 market share is still twice that of Linux? Even the
dreaded Windows ME is still just under the market share of Linux...

That's funny!
Will they come x large?

No, he isn't. A troll, maybe, but not Linux. Although, his overly energetic
antiVista-ProXP preaching makes him look like one.
