Its interesting to see how many nvidia vs ati cards are out there.

@vlad - no idea how many people are using adobe still, also wtf is up with that many people using silverlight


I was shocked by silverlight as well.

Not to sound like shio, but if ATI had sold so many cards in the past year (since the dx11 ones I think they mentioned 20 mil) and they are still at such a low % compared to nVidia imagine how many people actually buy gaming cards. I mean, holy fucking shit, that's near or above any of the console's userbases except the Wii.

Around the Network

Doesn't Netflix use Silverlight? Might explain the high figure. Also, the browser stats might just be based on the default browser rather than what's installed, otherwise it'd be a pretty pointless figure.

As for graphics card sales, Vlad, I think the usual figure is around 80 million per annum. Obviously they're not all going to be top of the line cards, but there again they're not going to be sold to business users either.
