Its true MS do hold almost 90% of the desktop OS market and they are not going away anytime fast. Although more bad news last year (Dec 08) “Windows Market Share Drops Below 90% for First Time”, “it has historically held tight: 90 percent.”

I also don’t think Apple is going to take over the PC desktop industry either. For starters they don’t have the capacity, infrastructure, etc. We also remain extremely reliant to MS apps. Particularly in the Enterprise.

Still, NO company no matter how big is immune from failure in the long run. Extinction is only a matter of time for everything

Best

Nick

Yup a sure sign of the end.
