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.

"There is no OS war since Apple refuses to fight one. When will people start realizing that?"
Apple understands supporting all the nasty hardware and all the sucky drivers on the planet isn't so damn simple.
A good chunk of Apple's OS success over the years is due to them supporting a controlled hardware list.
