agreed...
And with the #'s showing a loss of 3% for MS, it may seem rather insignificant, but actually those are huge #'s of users. A loss of %3 equates to hundreds of thousands of users, if not more. May appear to be a drop in the bucket, but it is actually rather significant.

Everyone seems to only trust his own experience  KimTjik | 05/01/09
But my experience is right (NT)  Loverock Davidson | 05/01/09
I disagree, with a smile...  KimTjik | 05/01/09
Ahem,  zak89 | 05/01/09

So, you're unfamiliar with feature settings?  MGP2 | 05/02/09
Forgetful critter aren't you...  zkiwi | 05/02/09
I'm slipping  ticthak@... | 05/05/09
Not accurate...  Christian_<>< | 05/01/09
So that's the new Linux party line?  Tiggster | 05/01/09
No...  storm14k | 05/01/09
What poor showing?  Christian_<>< | 05/01/09
Um, you have a problem...  wolf_z | 05/01/09
And that would make sense "how"?  MGP2 | 05/01/09
re: And that makes sense as in ....  Christian_<>< | 05/01/09
You're not helping your case here  Tiggster | 05/01/09
re: It is making it on the desktop  Christian_<>< | 05/01/09
Being a Ubuntu user I'd love to believe you, but what??  DevJonny | 05/01/09
A few examples.  trentreviso | 05/03/09
As long as Freedom makes sense that will make sense too!  InAction Man | 05/02/09
The number is not right but can still be interpreted  zelrikriando | 05/01/09
RE: Linux clients break 1% web usage share  Erroneous | 05/01/09
An even more impressive comparison  tt88xx | 05/01/09
50% increase still isn't much  Tiggster | 05/01/09
It doesn't need to be much...  storm14k | 05/01/09
you're funny  ITLeader | 05/01/09
Theres nothing delusional...  storm14k | 05/01/09
You are definitely delusional  ITLeader | 05/04/09
Critical Mass  trentreviso | 05/01/09
Firefox is a great example....  Christian_<>< | 05/01/09
Except FireFox is a homogenous product...  Sleeper Service | 05/02/09
Not exactly  AndyCee | 05/02/09
The consumer knows it as 'Firefox'...  Sleeper Service | 05/03/09
Linux does NOT fail "as a consumer system."  trentreviso | 05/03/09
I guess you didn't get the memo...  MGP2 | 05/03/09
Hatred of MS is not the same as belief in open source.  trentreviso | 05/03/09
Bully Says It Wants to be Open Source and ODF Friend  Ole Man | 05/03/09
Correct.  sporkfighter | 05/05/09
I understand what you're saying...  Sleeper Service | 05/04/09
That's the Linux way, many distributions. No need for mass market appeal.  InAction Man | 05/05/09
That jives with the 5-7% global desktop marketshare.  TripleII | 05/01/09
Firefox leading Browser in Europe  perspectoff | 05/01/09
The important point  john.lemme@... | 05/01/09
Shame on you, John!  MGP2 | 05/01/09
Another person with sense...  storm14k | 05/01/09
Great Post John!  MalachiV | 05/04/09
War Against Microsoft Office  Grayson Peddie | 05/04/09
So will 2009 be Linux's breakthrough year...  Sleeper Service | 05/01/09
2008 was.  TripleII | 05/01/09
You're right...  Sleeper Service | 05/01/09
Annihilated??? But they are still giving XP away.  InAction Man | 05/01/09
It was a hollow victory.  kozmcrae | 05/01/09
Yup...  Sleeper Service | 05/02/09
Can I quote you on that? (NT)  kozmcrae | 05/02/09
Sure.  Sleeper Service | 05/03/09
Exactly who lost?  storm14k | 05/01/09
You think?  Sleeper Service | 05/02/09
The improvements in Windows 7  LiquidLearner | 05/02/09
Interesting - who precisely is this "they" that you suppose "blew it"?  Zogg | 05/04/09
Uhhh . . .  sporkfighter | 05/05/09
It is not sustainable.  TripleII | 05/02/09
You mean you missed it?  MGP2 | 05/01/09
Yep...  storm14k | 05/01/09
And still hardly anyone wants it.  Sleeper Service | 05/02/09
Except enterprise  IT_User | 05/02/09
So which major corporations...  Sleeper Service | 05/03/09
critical mass is coming  brokndodge@... | 05/02/09
Linux usage numbers are grossly underestimated  InAction Man | 05/01/09
perhaps, but for other reasons  shis-ka-bob | 05/02/09
Its almost impossible to measure.  currysoup | 05/01/09
Fortunately the zealots from both camps...  kozmcrae | 05/01/09
1% is huge  hamobu | 05/01/09
RE: Linux clients break 1% web usage share  humans-enabled.com | 05/01/09
lol!  ITLeader | 05/01/09
Really?  storm14k | 05/01/09
The fact is  ITLeader | 05/04/09
Linux users buy stuff just like everyone else. This website runs on Linux.  humans-enabled.com | 05/02/09
If you didn't have to  ITLeader | 05/04/09
That is actually very offensive!  Zogg | 05/04/09
lol!  ITLeader | 05/04/09
Everyone pays for hardware. What's your point?  Zogg | 05/04/09
Check the edit  ITLeader | 05/04/09
You mean like my monthly World of Warcraft subscription?  Zogg | 05/04/09
The part  ITLeader | 05/04/09
That's just your prejudice talking.  Zogg | 05/04/09
Sorry bud  ITLeader | 05/04/09
I get it - your mind is closed.  Zogg | 05/04/09
read the inital post  ITLeader | 05/04/09
It's a lot  archlinux | 05/01/09
Yes but...  hamobu | 05/02/09
Significance of Mac share  AndyCee | 05/02/09
Nice to see OS X near the 10% mark.  HypnoToad72 | 05/03/09
I doubt it...  Sleeper Service | 05/04/09
Also significant  aardvark92 | 05/04/09
Just 1%? That's disappointing.  LeonBA | 05/04/09
