Actually, Windows is now below 90%. Apple OSX is taking quite a bit by storm.... They're back in education, people don't mind a $2K premium if it means little downtime. They were down to <2% 15 years ago.... http://www.theregister.co.uk/2014/03/15/windows_desktop_and_laptop_market_share_dips_below_90_per_cent/ The Register is pretty impartial and outside the US 'pay for your opinion' news. The article is from a year ago. I expect that Windows is probably below 87% or more now. P.
