RE: The OS wars: outcome decided!
1) Windows is more widespread then Linux.
2) People say more rapidly "sucks" when something is associated with MS (even for no reason).
3) Since more users use Windows, relatively more users will complain.
4) If a problem exists in Linux, people wont say "Linux sucks" as rapidly because often the people who use Linux know that saying something like that is stupid and know that 90% of all errors are human-errors, not OS-errors (because Linux isn't exactly for the novice) and the Linuxers will often try to fix the errors themself instead of posting a "X sucks"-message on the net....


Above points makes that the graph is only "fun" for all the browserwar-kiddies and means *beep*-*beep* when it comes to thru valid data/figures...


PS: it is an original fun idea though.... (but nothing more then that)
