Not hearsay. These reports cost money and I access them through a secure website where I work (one of the perks of being a system designer). They are part of IDC's market share research reports. You can pay for them at idcresearch.com
Rest assured these are VERY REAL numbers.
I suppose you think I'm making them up. Fine. Ingnore them at your own expense. It's your loss. You will continue to be un-informed as always. I generally publish these numbers for the benefit of thread participants on a quarterly basis.
Here are the previous 5 quarters worth of data.
