Only .44 of steam users are using the world's biggest OS? O.o

Anyways, I haven't read a single article where anyone was expecting it to suddenly bump sales of... well anything except Windows, secondly, NPD isn't giving us any figures, so we're still stuck waiting untill Microsoft's release in ~Jan.

That MUST be a typo. I'm sure it meant "Windows 8," not "Windows."

Ah, got it:

Windows 7 32 bit

• 14.49%
• -0.23%

 

 

Windows 8 64 bit

• 4.41%
• +2.48%

 

 

Windows 8

• 0.46%
• +0.24%

*snipped the rest of the windows*

Other

• 0.31%

So Windows 8, all versions combined already total 4.84%

Ah, darn, beaten by the kowster. :D
