Operating Systems Profile Report
MetaFacts, Inc, June 2005, Pages: 349
Operating Systems are at the heart of PCs in more ways than one. Beyond their technical function to control the inner workings of PCs, they have an enormous impact on when consumers do and don’t replace their computers, and in many cases, what other products they replace at the same time.
This Operating Systems Profile Report features analysis of the dynamics of operating systems as households make the transition through versions, or even change between Apple and Windows in either direction. The complete data is included from two consecutive years – 2004 and 2003. These are pivotal years, as they represent the adoption of the newly-released Windows XP and the slow, gradual, transition from Windows Millennium Edition (ME) as well as Windows 98, and earlier versions of Windows and even DOS.
Now a single report gathers summary results from a large representative sample of over 20,000 households on their habits and plans for use of Operating Systems. We ask users the key questions so you can see precise and actual information on their attitudes, usage, what they’re buying and planning to buy and more. No speculations or predictions, just valid information.
The Operating Systems report is built on the strength of Technology User Profile, conducted continuously since 1983 and providing a rich, comprehensive examination of the key aspects of technology use across the complete spectrum of environments and consumers. For the Operating Systems Profile Report, the experienced research team draws on results from two critical years in the transition to Windows XP, or towards Apple. This provides the key research you need for a high level, yet detailed look at technology purchases, usage and plans.
This comprehensive report contains analysis and supporting data on Windows XP Home, Pro & Media Center Edition, Apple, Linux, Open source applications software and PC brands, all taken from the longest running, most comprehensive full-market study of technology usage, Technology User Profile.
