Break out the salt, boys and girls, it's time for some statistics again. "According to Net Applications, in June Windows Vista accounted for 4.52% of all systems that browsed the Web, up from January's 0.18%. Vista has grown its usage share each month since its release to consumers Jan. 30, hitting 0.93% in February, 2.04% in March, 3.02% in April and 3.74% in May. Apple Inc.'s Mac OS X, meanwhile, accounted for 6.22% in January and hit its high point of 6.46% in May, but it slipped back to 6% in June. If Vista's uptake trend continues, it should pass Mac OS X in Web usage share by the end of August." Do with it as you please.

That's because web stats are never a good indicator of market share. There are many reasons why Linux usage would be misreported (user agents, sample bias, over-representation of certain Windows clients, over-representation of narrow-band users with dynamic IPs, etc.).
This subject has been endlessly debated here in the past, btw.
