Windows 7 passed the 5% market share milestone last weekend, which put it above the total market share of all versions of Apple's Mac OS X, a Web measurement firm has said. "It's safe to say that Windows 7's daily share did peak above Mac's weekly share," said Vince Vizzaccaro, executive vice president at Net Applications.
