Windows 7 has been out and about for little over a week now, and as it turns out, Microsoft's new baby is doing relatively well. That is, according to the figures by NetApplications: Windows 7 already reached the 3% mark this weekend, and is already closing in on the 4% mark.

Remember, we are comparing this to Wordpad, Paint and Calc. As I said, Kubuntu/Ubuntu comes with vastly more and better quality desktop software than Windows 7.
Has it ever occurred to you that Microsoft might be restricted in what it can include in the operating system by ... oh, I dunno ... ANTITRUST considerations? Consequently, it can only provide functionality offered by Apple, Canonical, and other vendors as a downloadable add-on? Otherwise, 20 state AGs, the US Department of Justice, and the all EC take Microsoft back to court and sue them for violating the consent decree related to illegal tying.
So, really, what are you trying to say? That Canonical can include a better Wordpad, Paint, and Calc on the Ubuntu install disk? Whoopie freakin' doo. What an amazing feat: Tie Microsoft's hands behind its back and declare victory. LMAO!
