From the article: Safari, the only browser to escape Chrome's impact

Translation: Despite Apple's very annoying efforts to shove Safari down everyone's throat through "iTunes updates", there is not a single Windows user out there using Safari, so Chrome could not steal any market share. Since, you know, there weren't any to steal in the first place.

I'm sure Windows Safari took a brief dip as well. But the majority of Safari users run OS X, and so there wasn't as large an impact.

There are people who like Safari, you know, for the fact that it's a good browser. And some of those people run Windows.

Well... Any non-Windows user uses a computer that's almost 100% Chrome-proof.

I won't try to run it on my Linux notebook, but I am still typing in Chrome on my Windows one. And IE sucks so badly I can“timagine anyone who _prefers_ it over Chrome.
