Yes, you read that correctly. According to the latest W3Counter Global Stats, Linux has finally surpassed Windows in PC market share.
Windows 98 that is.
The entire Linux collective family has finally taken the lead (#5), which is like saying generations of some mob family has finally beaten your great grandmother (who you know doesn’t have much longer to live, but keeps sticking around for another day) after 9 years in a race.
Next up is Vista (#4) and Mac OS X (#3)

| 1 | Windows XP | 83.48% |
| 2 | Windows 2000 | 3.94% |
| 3 | Mac OS X | 3.73% |
| 4 | Windows Vista | 3.46% |
| 5 | Linux | 1.34% |
