Windows 8, 8.1 Overtakes XP on New Netmarketshare Numbers

75

Netmarketshare seems to have continued its rebalancing act, and today’s numbers show Windows XP plunging again while Windows 8/8.1 continues its newfound success…

Overall, Windows has actually increased its market share this year, from 90.74 to 91.48 percent, on Netmarketshare’s numbers. Both Mac OS X (down from 7.66 to 7.27 percent) and Linux (down from 1.59 to 1.25 percent) have lost a little ground. I think the differences are too small to be meaningful.
