From: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/3324471.stm The survey was carried out by US firm AssetMetrix. It found that 80% of the organisations it questioned were still using Windows 98 and 95. Inside those firms, 39% of machines were running the venerable operating systems. By contrast AssetMetrix found that only 7% of the PCs companies were using had the latest Windows operating system, XP, installed. Windows 2000 was the most popular operating system. The survey covered more than 375,000 machines in 670 companies some of which had up to 49,000 PCs in their organisation.
