Sorry, but I'm going to have to correct you here.  Yes Windows dominates 
the desktop but only represents about 2% of the industry as a whole. 
When you look at the entire computing industry you'll find MS is a very 
small player.  Not many digital switches run NT and you won't find XP or 
98 anywhere in your car.  And thank goodness ME doesn't control any 747 
or F-16 cockpits.  How many NT clusters do you find on the Top 500 
Supercomputers list?
