I can't find it now, but one of the Mac sites recently posted the results of
a reader survey and found that 58 or 60% (I can't remember which) of those
responding use OSX as their primary system. I realize those numbers mean
very little since I can't tell you who responded, how many, fields of work,
etc. But they might well be indicative. Consider also how many new machines
have shipped in the last, what?, 6 months with OSX as the booting OS.
