Good thing, too.  Windows Vista is Microsoft's last OS before they leave the 
operating system market to focus on their other products, which makes me 
wonder if Vista support is completely moot at this point.

I'm thinking those numbers are unfairly tilted in favor of Windows, based on 
hit stats on my web server.  Over the course of 2006 so far, it looks like 
74.5% Windows, 13.2% Linux, 6.1% MacOS, and 0.1% other OS's.
