Windows 7 overtakes Mac OSX

Modern Apple Macs run an operating system called Max OSX.  It's been around for several years, with different versions like 'Jaguar' and 'Snow Leopard'.  Macs are pretty popular.  A number of our clients have them, especially for graphic work, but still PCs are the mainstream.

But, nevertheless, it's a real surprise to learn that there are already more Windows 7 machines than Mac OSX ones - that's after just one month in the market.  It's astonishing.  But true - according to Computerworld : http://www.computerworld.com/s/article/9141424/Windows_7_passes_Mac_OS_X_in_market_share_race?taxonomyId=89

Certainly, we are seeing a strong uptake, and we've got a number of projects to move clients entirely to Windows 7 - in fact we haev one project underway now, and another about to start.  It's a move that makes sense.  We've made the same change at Kinetics, moving everyone to Windows 7, and it's somethign we've posted on before, including this simple summary : http://www.kinetics.co.nz/newssite/Pages/Windows7-Whatcanyoulookforwardto.aspx
