This is not a fair comparison. Is Dickens didn't write a best selling book because the total number of all the Harry Potter books sold exceeds A Tale of Two Cities in number? Or worse, that the total volume of sales of trashy formula-written romance novels exceeds it?
Moreover, sales of a notebook with a preloaded operating system doesn't measure operating system use. I have immediately reformatted every "Windows" machine I've ever bought. Just because they're sold with Windows (or Chromebook, or OS X) doesn't mean they stay that way.
- wfjackson 13y agoAre you saying "Top selling laptops on Amazon" is equivalent to "best selling laptops in the U.S." ? How is that a fair comparison?
- j2kun 13y agoI'm not saying it's good, but if you think that's unfair, it's certainly worse to take the top 1,000 on Amazon. Any method I'd approve of has to compensate both for the frequency of manufacturers making laptops that ship with each OS and the amount of time various OS's have been on the market.
