MS has lost market share this past month. Linux gained. In short,

Yes, of course.

You can apologize for calling me a liar as soon as you grow the balls
and are man enough to do it.


No apology needed dick head as I'm talking about Windows 7...you
know...what this ng is all about? Now you apologize for lying, spamming
and trolling this ng with your bull**** ok.
Well...*sport* are you man enough little boy?
Oops!

You asked if I had proof that MS had lost market share and I provided it
for all to see. Instead of admitting I was right like a man, you trot
out a lame straw man like you usually do when refuted.

I thought linux didn't respond to the "market share" hype?
Oh and I don't give a **** about about your quoting any article about
anything. You're a known and admitted liar, thief, cheat and an atheist
asshole POS loser.
Also I doubt you'd understand how you can lose market share yet gain
actual number of users.
Any questions dick head?

I don't think you're a liar, but gaining .04% over an eleven month period
really isn't anything to be celebrating, especially since half that gain was
in one month and Linux still only owns about 1% of the OS share. Even Mac
had a better increase, and their stuff costs even more than Microsoft's.
Somehow I don't see Bill Gates filing for bankruptcy any time soon :-)

Windows, you need to reboot for almost all installs.

Well that proves you don't have nor have ever used Vista or Windows 7.

I have personally lost data on a windows system when auto-update
auto-rebooted while I had windows open and was away from the computer.
Auto-reboot should NEVER happen. You should ALWAYS have the
opportunity to close any work-in-progress before a reboot.

Sure, one could change settings so this doesn't happen, but the average
user is not likely to get that right, and will end up with an unpatched
system.

Again: No system should auto-reboot on a timer. It should require a
user OK.

And given MS counts copies shipped their numbers are artificially high
for Win 7. How many simply get wipped for XP? Or even for Vista? Or
Linux?

But I suspect Apple did well this Christmas with their UNIX BSD OS.

BTW, the numbers we see published on this often favor MS. For example,
excludes netbooks, excludes other countries where Linux is much more
popular. Pretty much safe to say when you see MS at 90%, it is a
US/Canada biased chart.

Would love to get a current one specifically for China which before too
much longer will hae mroe PCs than the US if they don't already. I
wouldn't put it past China to take Linux, 1,000,000 programers and
nationalize it's own OS based on Linux.

You're too stupid to have any technical questions. By your own
admission, you only do the "selling" of up-yr-****ing-butt-too os and
you have an 80 year old "engineer" do the real technical work.
You're a fool, fool.
Oops!...LOL!

Linux ended up on my desktops.

I like free, opensourse and source code
availability

Why? Unless you're a programmer, its of **** all use to you.

and above all NO LICENSE RESTRICTIONS!

Really? Your Usenet client seems to have one..

http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/legal/eula/

And most Open Source comes under Gnu GPL etc which also have
restrictions....

http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html


How many times do
you have to reboot Windows to install it; to upgrade it to change
something. Linux can be installed, upgraded or changed with NO REBOOTING!

Really? Why does Ubuntu Update manager tell me I need to reboot?

Ah, but Bill didn't need to take a bail-out (although what bankers have to
do with this, I don't understand).
