Well, its not official yet, but Microsoft's Windows 7 has now become the most widely used operating system. . . Windows 7 now has a strong 40.21% share of all desktop operating systems around the world whereas, the usage share of Windows XP has slipped to 38.64%. All this happened a couple of days back (in October). The rise in usage of Windows 7 and the drop in usage of Windows XP has been consistent since the time Windows 7 was first launched.

Let's be honest : all current desktop OSs suck in some critical areas. This is why lots of computer geeks keep switching desktop OSs out of insatisfaction, and why this whole "post PC" thing is irritating to many instead of just being laughable.
