They've had better software and better hardware than Windows for a full five years, and have still not cracked 5% market share, so I don't see why you're scared now- they've had good quarters before, and they end up getting lost in the noise. This doesn't mean they suck, but I think it does speak strongly to Havoc's point- just being differentially better will not win big market share; we need to think about how to change the game completely if we're going to 'win' in any meaningful way- i.e., more than 5% market share.
