I think I'm right in saying that the 360 is the only console to gain marketshare over the past year? Which is very interesting.

Also interesting to note that according to UK law, Microsoft is very close to a monopoly position (above 30%)

... do you even know what monopoly means? if youre thinking oligopoly, microsoft already has that position

Yes, I do. A firm technically holds a monopoly if it has greater than 30% of the market (under UK law), however, that usually applies to firms who operate in markets with a large number of competitors (like supermarkets, for example, Tesco is said to have a monopoly position over the market, yet it only has ~31% share of the market).
