Microsoft is beginning to see growth in its Windows 8 platforms, both on PCs and on mobiles



From Techradar:

Based on numbers from Net Applications, the Windows 8 OS is now on 3.17-percent of desktop machines and laptops, a figure which puts the platform in front of any individual variant of Apple's Mac OSX system. The bulk of OS installs on PCs remains with Windows 7 at 44.73-percent and Windows XP 38.73-percent. While the Windows 8 user base may be on the rise, it definitely has a long way to go.

  Windows 8, Windows Phone 8 both see small gains in share
