Apple continues to make market share gains according to online trend research firm Net Applications.
Last month, Net Applications reported that Apple's share was up to 6.8% with corresponding declining Windows market share. Today, Net Applications reports that the Mac has crested the 7% barrier and is at 7.31% for December 2007.

Apple (and to a lesser extent, Linux) have been steadily taking market share from Microsoft for the past 6 months.
