> The availability of Linux on inexpensive PCs and netbooks at
> Wal-Mart, Best Buy and other outlets seems to have helped it at the
> low-end of the PC market. Punters are learning that PCs don't always
> have to be preloaded with Windows, and that relatively expensive
> Apple computers aren't the only viable alternative to getting stuck
> with sucky Microsoft software.
> 
> Microsoft's getting squeezed at the high end of the PC market by
> elegant Apple computers running OSX and at the lower end by less
> expensive desktops and netbooks running Linux.

> ...Internet Explorer's market share fell below 70 per cent for the
> first time in more than ten years...
