After decades at 5-6% of the U.S. market, Apple shot up to a 9.5% share last year; but have since fallen back to 8%. They increased their market share, yes. Tripled it? Not. They haven't even doubled it. Even Acer sells more computers than Apple.
As far OS's, with Linux at about 1% these days, that means Windows runs 91% of the U.S.'s computers. See: "Apple's share of US PC market slips to 8%" (

This is in the U.S. only. For the entire world Apple's share is way smaller, thoough their share worldwide has increased as well over the last few years..
