Apple 8.9%

The rest 1.5%

Good luck Google....

Those are some impressive numbers but... The mighty can fall.

*points at PlayStation*

With the Playstation, consumers chose another console.

With Windows, you are simply forced to buy it, unless you just want a netbook. Advanced users need Windows for gaming, if nothing else.

Ah but as many many people have pointed out, PC gaming is 'niche' :P

To be honest I don't think Google pose a significant threat to MS in the OS market currently, but even if they achieve a success story similiar to Apple/Firefox and grab a small share of the pie I'll be happy. MS needs competition like any other business to keep itself sharp. Just look at what happened to the Xbox-360 transition, (with regards to service and software, not initial crappy hardware) without Sony, that would have never been the case.

Advanced PC usage is niche. Most people should just use netbooks.

That said, MS installs windows on PCs before they are brought to market. It's gonna be hard for one of those companies to make a deal with Google and shun MS. That is what it would take for this OS to make any impact whatsoever.



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.
