  Just out of curiosity : do you know what's "the thing" in, say, China or India ?

    While it doesn't tell the whole story, just looking at things like sales numbers and user agent stats gives you a pretty good idea of the relative popularity in different areas. Apple just has very little presence in some of these places, _especially_ for desktop.

      Interesting, but I don't consider iOS or Android a real operating system.
