Obviously these figures are only for the desktop market which is the last area left for Microsquish as their attempts to move into the server markets produce consistently poor results or even break systems as we saw at the London Stock Exchange.
Of course microsquish is fighting hard to defend the desktop/netbooks markets and may even score some temporary victories but the growth rate for linux is shocking. I pity microsquish now and think Mr Gates jumped ship at the perfect moment, before it's inevitable decline.
