No, I think he means he got that statistic from the HP marketing department, where (I believe) he works.

Slightly more relevant, this made me facepalm so hard my hand went through my face.

The Flame Virus can operate on Windows 7, Microsoft is clearly linked to the Flame Virus. This comes from our chief untelligence officer.

So HP sold 4% of Macs. :p Dafuq? Anyway, is it for all computers, or only desktop? Most Macs solds are Laptop, from what I've seen.
It's laptops and desktops, but only those sold through retail stores (Best Buy, OfficeMax, Staples, et al.)

It's known as the Oppai-Kaiju effect. The islands of Japan generate a sort anti-gravity field, which allows breasts to behave as if in microgravity. It's also what allows Godzilla and friends to become 50 stories tall, and lets ninjas run up the side of a skyscraper.

Yeah, so it doesn't include the Mac Stores, that do sell a fair amount of Macs I'm told.

EDIT: Oups, should re-read myself instead of trusting the spellchecker.

How do you do the Mac Stare? This sounds like a easy way to make money! :D

This reminded me of this game for some reason.
Obviously, it's designed by or in fact is an artificial intelligence of some sort. With hope, its intention is to sabotage both Iran and Israel with the intent to prevent them from being able to destroy each other. Or it's trying to make Iran blame Israel while Israel blames Iran so that a nuclear exchange wipes out some humans.

But this new weapon is twenty times the size of earlier cyberbombs and far more powerful, making it practically an army on its own, said Roel Schouwenberg, a senior security researcher with Kaspersky Labs.

I'm wondering if that guy really is that stupid or if it's just fox news bad reporting making him look bad.
