Windows 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.

The point here was that things like "faked identification strings in browsers" hardly matter in the overall picture.


The point is that the "overall picture" is being deliberately misreported to you.

Linux dominates many computing markets, and even in some segments of the desktop market it is shipping at about a third of the market with Windows the remaining two thirds.

It is simply the case that some vested interests do not want you to know about this. They do not want it generally known that Linux is a perfectly viable option (even on the desktop) that is far better value for people.
