3 months ago: Microsoft 'Delighted' by Windows 11 (Vista 11) Usage, Which is Only 1% Three Months After Official Launch and Six Months After Release Online

Android is way above Windows this month (see outline and graph below)

Summary: I've only just noticed that, as far as I'm aware for the first time ever, Android has more than 10% a gap over Windows in terms of market share
