[AccessD] Windows 8

Ok, I guess I should have looked at the original link.

But if that is the case, the figures are likely to be even more distorted in favour of consumer

Any web browsing tally ignores the huge pool of corprate machines which don't have direct 
access to the web.  How many of those machines at IBM that you have been involved with 
recently have direct web access?
