Office and windows go hand in hand though. Windows is a clear winner over ChromeOS. For comparing it to MacOS its debatable what is qualitatively better, both systems are full of tradeoffs.

Personally I lean towards MacOS because homebrew and terminal.app are pretty good. Updates are pretty unobtrusive and wifi is easy to manage. I'm not sure that these are hard hitting features for most users.

ChromeOS is a North America market phenomenon, hardly used anywhere else.

Those are desktop numbers. Virtually all ChromeOS devices are laptops!

Laptops are desktops!

If you have better numbers for ChromeOS world domination, care to share them with us?
