According to web-based market share figures from Netmarketshare, Microsoft Windows 7 has overtaken the 11-year-old Windows XP operating system, while Apple's Mac OS X has overtaken Windows Vista this summer. XP's market share has steadily eroded from 61.91% in September 2010 to 42.52% today, while Windows 7's share has grown from 17.64% to 42.76% over the same period. Netmarketshare's numbers are balanced to reflect PC use in Asia, including China, where pirate copies of XP are in widespread use, the report said. Over the same two years, Windows Vista's market share has more than halved from 13.75% to 6.15%, enabling Apple's Mac OS to overtake Vista this summer, the data showed.
