This year, Apple launches the latest iteration of their OS X (that looks frighteningly the same over it's 10 year run) and 2012 will herald Windows 8, but there's still a lot of retro-love for the old systems.
As of last month, 40% of Windows users are still running Windows XP on their computers. Hard to believe, given the advances on computers in the last decade, but it's been stable and yet to be outdine. Hell, I'm still rocking the XP!
XP was released way back in October 2001, and is just barely less popular than the two proceeding Windows Vista and Windows 7 versions combined . By comparison, OS X has about 8 percent of the market share. There's an extensive graph of the Microsoft / Apple here, which not only covers their company rivalry, but also their saw-saw dominance over each other.
