D'après "Communicationsweek international" du 18.12.1995:

Sun Microsystems Inc. is losing some of its lead in the World Wide Web server operating system market, while the MacOS is more popular than MS Windows for Web servers, according to a recent study (Arizona State University: http://www.mirai.com/survey):
Sun marketshare = 31,4%
MacOS = 17%
Windows = 14,2%
Linux = 9%
The rest is split, with no OS tallying more than 6,5%.

As for the Web server software being run:
National Center for Supercomputing Applications version of Mosaic = 39,2%.
MacHTTP = 17%.
CERN version of Mosaic = 16,6%.
No other program registered more than a 10% share.

More Internet studies are now being carried out:
Semiannual study by Georgia Institute of Technology's Graphics Visualization and Usability center in Atlanta.
Third annual Internet demographics survey by Matrix Information & Directory Services Inc. of Austin, Texas.

The Internet Society, more than a year ago, estimated that Sun had 56% of the market.
