Micoshaft sales have plummeted to less than
one third of all OS sales in Japan.

Linux is distributed not sold.
Don't pay for any reports that fails to acknowledge that point!!

Linux is now going like hot cakes.

At least one million new Linux desktops per month and the rate is
accelerating.

Those should in fact be counted properly, and I think you mean "Windows
Vista" camp here, although Dell had to retract its Vista-only policy and
extend XP purchases on certain machines.

I'm worried about Dell. They need to go to a Vista-only policy on *all*
their machines. Doing so would increase their bottom line as it
simplifies support and sales. But we'll have to see.

(The alternative of going to a "naked-only" or a Linux-only policy would
cause widespread revolt, the invasion of the US by al Qaeda operatives,
dancing, and nuclear armageddon. Can't have that.)

Linux. Because it's not the desktop that's
important, it's the ability to DO something
with it.

Ahahahahahahahahaha....And where did you pick up that bit of nonsense? Oh
ya... MacWorld.

They put Leopard sales at 60% and Vista sales at 29%. Leaving 11% for all
other operating systems XP (still being sold), Various flavours of Unix, and
of course the various propriatory OS's used in Japanese game machines and
propriatory hardware. And then the LinTard OS.

But wait.. There's more. These figures are only for OS only sales. And
don't include sales associated with the purchase of new machines, which of
course would skiew this result heavily back to the OS camp.

And what happens when all 1,000,000 MAC users finish upgrading by the end
of this month? Sales on the island will plumet, while sales of Vista will
continue at a growing pase as Vista is retro-adopted by people waiting for
Service Pack 1 to be released.

Oh, I dunno... Dell going 100% linux?
It'd be worth all that just to see the look on DooFy's FACE.
