Fuzzy Math = Windows Crashes 30 Billion Times a Year

John C. Dvorak has apparently used some fuzzy statistics and math to conclude that Windows crashes – worldwide – 30 billion times a year. Now usually Dvorak is on my black list for vocalizing such things as his wish for OSX to open up to any hardware, as well as his distaste for the amazing work of Creative Commons (apparently simplified copyrights make his brain think not good), but this is pretty funny. He uses a wide variety of statistics, a quote from Gates and some common sense (if the guy has any) to come up with his numbers, so he isn't just shooting in the dark.

Either way, this obviously isn't really Apple news, but I figured the TUAW readers could use a nice chuckle on a lazy Sunday.

[Update: TUAW reader wrecklass pointed out that Dvorak's calculations (fuzzy as they may be) pertain to all iterations of Windows, not just XP. Thanks wrecklass!]
