Windows also 'won'. That does not make it the best solution. Merely the most successful.

What is your definition of 'best'?

Unfortunately, this argument (which tends to imply technical excellence should trump all other factors in the success of a technology) has been used in technology for a long time, but frankly, in the end doesn't matter.

Ask Betamax, OS/2, etc, etc.
