Ron, do they say how these figures were obtained? And where they apply? I think that Linux is, on a worldwide scale, at least 3 times that. Also, I think that Win 2000 is higher than quoted.
I saw some figures that were given on a website in England, that were quoted as worldwide.

Windows 200 still hanging in there. I used ol 200 up until 2003 when I finally switched to XP.
Just think in 5 years XP will probably be third with Vista at least at 70% and OS X right behind it.
Of course anything can happen in 5 years, maybe a “different” Microsoft OS?

Also, I don’t see figures for any Unixes - they aren’t all gone.

I’m curious - any idea how these stats were put together?

They do not indicate how the stats were collected.
I did fix the link to the source if anyone wants to take a closer look at these and other stats.

Absolute bunk. Figures pulled out of their ass.
