Microsoft and Apple Worlds Are Right Once Again

It would appear the end of the world is not as close as it might have appeared this past weekend.

I am referring to my Sunday morning posting about the Interesting Apple Snow Leopard Product Page at Amazon.  That page showed the soon to be released OS X Snow Leopard update for sale at $29.  The bottom of the page showed that 75% of the people who viewed that product page ultimately purchased the Home Premium and Professional upgrade versions of Windows 7 (also in pre-order).

In fact here is that screen shot from that post for easy access/comparison:

Well today it seems the planets, stars and apples…I mean moon have re-aligned and that section of the page is now updated to reflect that 89% of those visitors ultimately bought the OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard upgrade and that 10% purchased the MAC OS X Snow Leopard Family Pack (5-User) package.

Check it out for yourself:

Everyone can now take a deep breath – the world is obviously right once again :-)
