Windows 10 is finally in more than 50% of the computers in the world


Although the days are long gone when the personal computer is dominated by Windows, since that honor was given in the days of XP and today belongs to the marketshare Android if we take cell phones into account, without a doubt Microsoft's OS continues to lead if we are purists and see the PC only as laptops and desktops.

A recent report reveals that Windows 10 It has finally surpassed the 50% marketshare, with data indicating a truly successful transition from Windows 8 and 8.1, in a feat rarely seen. Recall that in an anecdotal way, Windows Vista was despised by consumers and XP even transcended until the days of Windows 7. This OS was in part the executioner of the primary adoption of Windows 8 since it was so good that there was little reason for it. update, if not until the hardware change, which was the same reason that displaced XP by 7, with the Vista fiasco in the middle.

The slices of the cake look like this:

Windows 10: 50.99%
Windows 8.1: 4.20%
Windows 8: 0.63%
Windows 7: 30.34%
Windows Vista: 0.15
Windows XP: 1.57%
macOS: 9.68%
Linux: 1.72%

How do I give something n00bKeep in mind that the market penetration of Macs is especially low today (due to the migration of personal computing from the masses to the smartphones) and that 8.1 was a quasi-mandatory but free update to Win8.

In January, Windows 7 was barely surpassed by Windows 8 and this data (from the Net Applications agency, August 2019) and the gap has been increasing.

To put things in perspective Windows 10 is already installed on 800 million computers. And if you want a joke, XP has more marketshare than Vista (for more than 1.3%).
