While I agree that most of those only have a short wow factor to them, there are still some that add functionallity and make the user interface much easier to work with.

Nope.  Wouldn't be for me.  I am not a power browser.  Maybe for some.

So that's what you youngsters call bookmarking now?

If that doesn't scream I

vista is faster that linux (note the experts "rad" hair)

 on the contrary.....we love MS for all its bounty it bestows onto us.

MS share would considered awesome by any other enterprise, but not them... They even kept alive XP longer, against their original will and helping killing Vista in the cradle, to avoid giving too much market share to linux in the low end subnotebook niche, pure greed or do they fear that once Windows' stranglehold on OS market starts loosening it won't ever end?

I've never had a problem with an MS modern OS, but I've always hated IE.  I actually use Firefox, it's a far better browser.

As for the 89.69% mark, it's nothing too big really.  Most of the remaining people who don't use Windows, use MAC OS, and Apple keeps their computers in the upper echelon due to being overpriced, so they are a long way off from being a threat to the PC.

Linux is also not a threat (although I run Redhat as a dual OS with XP on my desktop) because even though every Windows version always has critical problems, the Linux based OS' are too complicated (and lack way too many drivers & programs) for the average computer user.

Just my opinion of course...

Linux is nearing 1% market share....
