I think 7 will still see further growth because a lot of corporate migrations take a long time (years typically) to get from start to end.

8 will grow first in the consumer space.

Surprising Mac shows 7.1% given the number of PCs in the world... but I bet this data is based on browsing, which really doesn't represent the number of PCs that exist as many are not online.

Agreed. I do not believe for a second that MAC's are holding that much MS.
