Yes, except 24 million of those copies were sold before MS

Perhaps you should first show us the numbers in regards to how the above conclusion was arrived at :D

  

why bother quoting back numbers someone made up. real numbers are at purchase PC numbers were at about 15 million. Total sales across all platforms were at about 55 million. PC is now 25 million and last year total sales for all platforms passed 100 million. It has turned out to be a cheap purchase, must admit I thought at the time it was overpriced but willing to admit I was dead wrong there.

Thats the whole point. These are made up numbers and as such it invalidates from the outset the poster's authority to seek numbers from another poster in an effort to downplay the other point of view, especially when the original poster's argument is not based on anything except pure perception and uninformed observation..Guess I am being too picky with stuff here as you might be suggesting :)
