From Neowin:

Microsoft's quest to reduce the worldwide market share of Windows XP as much as possible before it reaches its support cut date of April 8th, 2014 continues to show results. According to the latest data from Net Applications, Windows XP lost over two percent of its market share in September 2013.

The research firm's newest numbers show Windows XP in second place with 31.41 percent, well below August's numbers of 33.66 percent. In the past two months, Windows XP's share has dipped nearly six percent, which would be unthinkable earlier this year.
