spindle,
I'm basing the 2% off of statistics provided by the major research agencies.
If you want to buy a Mac, you'll be buying from Apple. If you want to buy a PC, you'll be buying from Dell, Sony, Gateway, HP, Acer, IBM, Compaq, Wyse, Neoware, NEC, etc., or they could build it themselves using parts created by hundreds of other brands. Saying Apple sells more boxes than any computer brand is completely irrelevant, if even true.
Windows XP is the most stable operating system I've ever used. And I use Mac OS9 and OSX at work quite often. OS9 crashes constantly on every Mac in our office. OSX crashes occasionally. I bought Windows XP over two years ago. It crashed for the FIRST time about a week ago. Let me repeat that: I'VE USED WINDOWS XP FOR OVER TWO YEARS AND IT HAS CRASHED ONCE. The crash was due to a video driver. I have a 2ghz computer at work and sometimes I can't do Flash animation on it because it's too fast, and my animations that run nice and quick run too slow on slower PCs, and they chug beyond all belief on a Macintosh.
So PCs are only good for Flash and games? Do you remember when Adobe posted an article on their website saying how their software runs much better on PCs? You might not, because the second they did Mac users went ape shit on Adobe. They took the article down to not lose any business.
