If you buy a Windows PC and put Linux, Solaris or even Mac OS X on it, that only counts as market share for Windows. It doesn't count for any of the operating systems that end up on the system.

I have to disagree with this. That just doesn't make sense then that the Linux market share has grown like it does. The only computers that get sold in any real quantity with linux on them are server machines and I can't see linux achieving the numbers that they have with those machines alone.
