"I think I will post it again:"
Let's assume Apple has 2.8% market share wordwde.
What's great about that?
Apple USED to have over 25% market share long before Windows was even launched.
Apple is totally dominated by Microsoft in computers today.
"Now I think you need to document that claim. "
I don't need to document nothing.
Webapplications have never claimed they track actual PC sales. No PC maker has ever quoted Webapplications as a source pf PC sales, as far as I know. They do for IDC and Dataquest.
"In actual fact Webapplications.com is skewed toward Windows centric websites, not Apple"
Nope.
Webapplications.com over estimate both Mac and Firefox market share.
Firefox market share from Webapplications.com has always been significantly higher than those from the more reliable Websidestory.

They DON'T track PC sales, and have never claimed they did... they track actual OS and browser USAGE... which is more related to overall Installed base than Market share of sales for any specific period.

Apple had a 35% share back in the late 70s... so what. We are looking at what is happening RIGHT NOW.. the last year or two.
Webapplications.com over estimate both Mac and Firefox market share.
You've been challenged to PROVE your assertion and have failed. You are the one spouting claims without providing sources or data to back up your claims. I have done both. Provide a source; put up or shut up.
