Now you know why they wanted to buy Google.

windows | ~110,000,000 (***)

(***) windows is also a common object in houses
actually... I had tried it, and I did not put it on purpose (it is too common as a word to be of any interest: indeed in the first page alone there is a result that is not related to MS-Windows); here is instead some search on two words:

Suse Linux   |  3,180,000
redhat linux |  3,410,000
Debian Linux |  3,810,000
windows NT   |  7,820,000
windows XP   |  8,100,000
windows 98   |  8,290,000
windows 2000 | 10,800,000

and here I will stop, since I have been scolded for inappropriately using this list :-)
