Umm, yeah. That was, and always has been, the plan. Windows has ninety percent market share (it's IBM compatible PCs that have 90% market share--too bad, nowadays people run different flavors of Windows, x86 linux, Solaris, BSD, and, on those IBM compatibles made by Apple--Intel Macs, they run Mac OS X).
