ROFLMAO

Yeah, like the netbook market-share. 98% Windows XP IS accurate... for brick and mortar retailers... in the US. Problem is, I have yet to even see a netbook with Linux pre-installed available for sale at all in that venue. So if you want to play that game, OSX has 100% operating system market-share... of desktop operating systems sold at the Apple Store. For that matter, Hardee's Monster ThickBurger is a diet food... if you only eat once a week. Catholicism is the religion of 98% of the populous... of Vatican City. Throw in enough ifs, ands, ins, ofs & buts and you can claim pretty much ANYTHING you want - I am the greatest and most powerful tech guru alive... in my household HA! FTWS

Jane, do you always single source your articles?

I don't want to speak for someone else, but the title includes "Microsoft Claims", and the article body is replete with similar wording. And, if I'm not mistaken, she's from the other side of the pond, so there could be some of that very subtle sarcasm going on here.

PS - I'm not saying that a comparison to an independent source wouldn't have been nice, but it's a quick news blurb, not a feature. Any meaningful data comparison, taking into account all factors and checking up on everyone's methods can get time consuming.

I find everything I need on Google just fine. A couple times ive tried Bing ...and Bing did not provide me with any results that were better than what I found on Google. Not sure what the hype is really.
