Windows NT and Windows 95 combine is less than 1%, but there's still people using it. Not going to give you the percentages for the rest. XP just kicks every OS's ***. My XP percentages are a little higher because that's just percentages among Windows OS. Funny though, Windows from my stats represented 97.16% of OSes. Damn, nevermind.

My point was that openoffice had some issues that we did not see after moving to Office. It was also a much smoother on the integration level and Office opened other features not available with openoffice.
Personally, I have installed openoffice on many computers and never had an issue.Windows 10 to Linux and Mac OSX: I'm PARSECs better than you. Eat my dust!!!

im a unix sysadmin (as mentioned previously), but for me its a matter of horses for courses - although i use linux on my desktop and it works pretty well, i personally have windows on my desktop at home. why? because it does everything i need it to do.
on the server its a different matter - i cant imagine why people would have a windows server, but i know theres quite a few out there so they must be good for something...
i dont see how you can be a 'windows supporter' any more than you can be a 'linux supporter' - each tool should be assessed for the job in hand - if you dismiss anything out of hand, then you're more likely to miss out on the best solution

Go Microsoft!
Linux and apple are not that popular around the world as windoz is. I have never seen anybody using linux or apple outside of the America. Where i am from all the computers are windoz.

Even small companies and colleges... my old school dumped linux/netware for windows everything... they said it has been much smoother. Even if the admin guys hates windows... I don't know how he got it installed or if it is patched right, but everyone seems happy for a change....
