In 2004, share markets for desktop operating systems was something like 1% of computer running Linux, 3% running MacOS and 96% running Windows (a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.alwayson-network.com\/comments.php?id=P4705_0_6_0_C\">source<\/a>)<\/p>\n<p>But come on. &quot;Won the server&quot;. What. A. Joke. Just focusing on Web servers shows that Apache runs 70% of all websites while Microsoft&#39;s IIS powers 20% of them (source: <a href=\"http:\/\/news.netcraft.com\/archives\/web_server_survey.html\">Netcraft<\/a>). I know you can run Apache on Windows, but I highly doubt that more than 5% would do so.<\/p>\n<p>Now, about &quot;will win the Web&quot; : I guess Ballmer is foreseeing how the upcoming IE7 will take over the world and <em>pwn<\/em> Firefox. Sure. Maybe. Why not.
