Last weeks poll, Are You a MAC or PC or Linux, seems fairly conclusive. Although the response was on the light side, the results were 50% are PC’s, 25% MAC and 25% are Linux based (PC’s).
Compare that with the survey I had taken on LinkedIn the week before: 25 PC, 21 MAC and 20 Linux (or combo of the other two) out of 66 respondents, which breaks down to approximately 1/3 for each of the different systems.
As I mentioned in a previous post about a poll that I had taken over a year ago, PC’s (Windows) had 90% of the market and everything else came in the bottom 10%, there was no accounting for combinations of Operating Systems or Linux users.
The only thing that could be possibly be read into the results of these polls, is that Windows (PC’s) is losing ground in the battle of the Operation Systems.
Although, it seems that there is no real way to have a poll and have the “definitive” answer. I guess it depends on the venue in which the question is asked, the way you phrase the question, what answers are provided as a response and WHEN the poll is taken.
My thanks to all who participated in the various polls and I wish I had a better answer than “Windows is Losing Ground in the OS Battle”.
