After first going around discrediting this report, it is curious that it is now being touted as evidentiary by the poster. It is probably not much of an important factor to note that Vista, after a few weeks of release, is still less frequently encountered than Win98, since the result the following month will surely show that Vista now surpasses Win98. Given enough time, it will doubtless surpass XP. However the same surver shows that Vista, anemic as it is after a few weeks of availability, is still about double the usage of Linux on desktop, web-surfing machines. What is sauce for the goose is good for the gander as well, eh?
