Lies, damn lies, and statistics...

I don't know about these figures, but I've heard before that Novell
count upgrades from 2.x and 3.x as shipments, whereas MSFT do
not count upgrades. Thus, in any given quarter, there are often
many more "shipments" of Netware than Windows NT. As someone
who works in the software industry, Press Releases are very frequently
"economical with the truth" in this way. Don't believe everything you
read!!!! Still, the information might right; just be vewy, vewy careful
when you hunt wabbits.
