Unfortunately with the world economies going as they are I fear Apple may be the biggest loser in terms of OS market share, it might be the best but Apple hardware is the most expensive and that will hit them hard. I bought my Macbook almost a year ago, but if I had to replace it now I would find it hard to justify the price tag much as I love it.

Most popular OS for the next couple of years, got to be Linux as it has the best price point, Free and it runs on both PC and Mac hardware.
Unless it comes bundled with iLife'09 and iWork'09 for the same price as the former Leopard.
