Venture Beat [venturebeat.com] reports on "preview data that has NOT been reviewed by Quality Assurance" from Net Applications [netmarketshare.com] showing that, among desktop operating systems used for browsing the 40,000 participating Web sites, Microsoft Windows has fallen to 80.23% market share. The 1.22% decline from the previous month is unusual; Windows had been gradually losing share since November of 2007, when it was at 95.89%. OS X makes up 9.20% of the market (slightly less than Windows XP's 9.66% share) and Linux 1.56%.
