That MS has 31% of the market means that 69% of the market is using something else. That pretty much supports my view, at least from what I can see. 2/3rds of all Internet servers are not using Windows.

Nope.
That MS IIS had 20.5% share a year ago, and today MS IIS has 31.0%, means MS market share is up by 50"%, and the lead of lead of Apache over Windows/IIS has gone down sharply from 47.5% a year ago, to 27.7% today.
That essentially puts the lie to your asssertion that "In the web hosting and colocation markets, Linux and to a lesser extent, FreeBSD have already won".
Linux/BSD/Apache are losing market share every month. There is no 'already won" about it.
