Windows 7 Overtakes XP, OSX Struggles To Beat Vista 540
judgecorp writes "Latest market share figures show the difference between perception and reality. Windows 7 just nudged past Windows XP with both around the the 43 percent mark. OS X and Windows Vista divide the rest of the spoils, with all versions of OS X only just adding up to a little more than the failed Windows version, according to data from Netmarketshare."

OS X has it, Windows doesn't. And I think Win 8 will throw more mojo to OS X's direction.

This is the first comment you've made on slashdot - very poor effort. It's not even good shilling.

It's getting to the point with you brainwashed Apple fans where I HAVE the mod points, but your post isn't even inspiring me to mod you down as a blatant shill. It's not inspiring me to do anything more than just roll my eyes and make this snarky reply, in fact.

The software you need to use is the real reason you use a computer, not because you want to use an OS.
I'm a kernel hacker, you insensitive clod.

False. Every time I bash Apple (mainly because it costs 2x as much) my post gets modded down into invisibility. This forum is very protective of the Apple brand and punished anybody who says something negative about it.
You should go to one of the Apple vs. Samsung threads then. You will enjoy it.

The West is a overused term. That said, I see a lot of Apple laptops here in Japan.
Hell, you're way West from me, and I'm in Alaska. You're so West that you could be considered East.
Now I'm all dizzy.

Is it just me, or are more and more blatant flamebait stories reaching the front page recently?
Yeah, it's really gotten bad the last 13 years.
