Global PC Vs Mac Market Share
It is time once again for our monthly article on OS (Operating System) market share, specifically between Macintosh and Windows computers. Just a few days ago Apple released its next OS named Snow Leopard and coming in October is Microsoft’s latest innovation named Windows 7. These two Operating Systems will be going head to head for several years forward. While Microsoft holds basically an insurmountable user base for Windows PC’s, it doesn’t stop Apple from trying to make some inroads into their space. Only time will tell if Apple can gain any substantial market share from the thunder of Windows.
Please be aware that these percentages are based on consumers and businesses, not including servers. The actual figures and data are provided by Global Market Share Statistics and their website can be viewed here.
