    Who is viewing

    Don't know why I find it interesting but.....

    When looking at the forum topic page, at this moment, the number viewing the OS forums are W10 x 3; W8 x 1; W7 x 3; Vista x 0 and XP x 15.

    Does this imply that XP is still the most popular OS?

    Not necessarily. Most forums and websites have a lot of non human viewers/bots all of the time.. many of them related to search engines like google etc so if that search engine has a lot of search spiders at any one time then what they're "looking" at will skew the statistics of who's viewing. Some are also spam bots trying to get access to and/or set up spam accounts.
