Way too early to call, but recognizing that bloggers need hype.
This datapoint is derived from a couple of weeks of information collected from a company that has no way to verify actual numbers, only predict/interpret much like a Nielsen rating.
Not to mention, position #2 is a long way from position #1 in this game. Add on top of that the fact that Microsoft has historically been very good at making a splash, minorly disrupting the marketplace, and then fading off.
This will be a more interesting conversation 12 months from now.
