W7 share peaks at over 5% over the weekend

It is interesting how the share cycles over the weekend when people
are home, the declines as they go to work and have to use XP in the
office.

Who gives a shit? No Mac user cares. Why should we? We have the software we
need, the company that makes the platform we favor is healthy. End of story.
I wish you Wintrolls could get that through your mindless heads!

Yawn! Sleep inducing irrelevancies.

And why would we Mac users give a tinker's damn, anyway?

There are probably enough clueless morons buying computers these days
(most of them, statistically, Windows boxes) that a new release of
Windows could get 10% market share even if literally didn't boot, so
long as Microsoft managed to talk OEMs into preloading it. (Though I
suppose if it didn't boot it wouldn't show up in the Net Applications
numbers. Heh.)

You can't "advocate" to a freakin' troll. They have no interest is discussing
anything. They're just here to mock, denigrate, and laugh up their sleeves
(generally at nothing). So, the best thing anyone can do when they post some
mindless drivel like Tommy wrote, above, is to call a spade a spade and to
tell them that they are wasting their time with this irrelevant crap.

With regard to his motives, I tend to agree. It's still worth
debating the differences in the two markets/etc., though.

Not only does it have to boot, it has to connect to the net and hit
URL's. Quite a few hit in fact to make that kind of move in the Net
Applications data.

Actually, FaLaLa, we just enjoy pulling your strings and watching you
dance. You do dance so pretty too. I pull the string, and you move
your hips. So cute. If you ever get on Dancing With the Starz let me
know. You can win that thing with a little help form me.

With SOME PEOPLE and on SOME ISSUES, I agree. But trolls like Tommy, zara
(and all of his/her/its sockpuppets), Muah, Slade, to name a few, are
worthless wastes of human flesh. The best thing they can do, collectively,
for mankind, is to donate their organs to an organ bank, and put shotguns in
their mouths and pull the trigger. That way they'll give life to perhaps some
worthwhile individuals while ending their own miserable existences and good
riddance to bad rubbish as we say in the U.K.

Uh, congratulations? I know how much pride you invest into this, so I
suppose you feel that this is a personal win?

I'd still like to know why he thinks that anyone here would be impressed or
even care? AFAIC, he could be telling me that LG sold more washing machines
last quarter than did Bosch, and I'd be just as impressed - in other words, I
could give a good goddamn. These Windroids don't seem to understand that most
people have little interest in things that they don't use and that very few
of us buy things based on the market share of the individual vendors.
