  4. etc.

So, while it may be statistically true, it doesn't say much about the quality of reading from a PC screen. Two hundred years ago the most popular writing device was a quill simply because there was nothing better. If Ballmer and MS rest on their laurels, satisfied with their statistical truth, they (together with their products) might share the fate of the quill.
