Microsoft makes ZERO notebooks, Puget. They do not "own" that market. . . they cannot "own" that market because they do not even compete in that market. Your claim is false on its face.

Hey Sword,

How many notebooks ship WITHOUT Windows installed?

Go into Best Buy, or Office Depot. Go to HP or Dell's site. Visit NewEgg. You'll find they come with Windows. Not OSX, not Linux - Windows.

That's called owning a market. You totally dominate the market that you service. In this case, Microsoft is THE market for notebook operating systems.

Give up trying to play cute words games - you really suck at it...

If you weren't so sloppy with your use of words, perhaps it wouldn't be necessary. But I hold that precision in saying things IS the essence of accuracy. . . And honesty. Your sloppiness in reading allows you to slop over the precision of my statements and assume I'm as sloppy as you so you can ignore the precise truth I wrote and declare me a liar because somewhere, if I was as sloppy as you, there might be an exception that allows you to claim what I said is not quite completely accurate... If you are allowed to ignore the precision of my statement or take it out of context.
