What can I say? 96% of personal computers run some form of
windows. Does that mean it's a superior product to a PC running
Linux, or a Mac w/ MacOS?
I'd say "no" (actually more like "NOOO!"), because windows doesn't let
me do 80% of the things that I do (need to do) with my PC.

From the fact hat the user-base is so massive, can I deduce that
windows is superior in terms of security or easy maintenance?
My personal experience says "No, no way".

What then? Could it be marketing or the sad results of a avalanche
effect? Geee, there's a thought.
