Based on various download sites statistics for popular software still being offered on both platforms (e.g. Graphic Converter), it is like 98% of people are converted to OS X. Some machines such as high end AVID video edit facilities which are built on OS 9 will never "upgrade" since they aren't connected to net, they do a single job and there is no reason to replace a $400.000 facility just to use OS X. It is the same deal for high end audio workstations or Macs running specialised software such as POS, serving internet (for example, a FTP server) and so on.

How is an OS X different from a regular Mac?

Mac OS X (say Mac OS Ten) is the tenth version of the operating system (OS) that controls a Macintosh computer (known as a Mac for short). The equivalent for some other computers would be the Windows operating system. Mac OS X has been around for nearly ten years and replaced Mac OS 9 which was the last version of what is known as the "classic" Mac OS. Although a few Macs still use Mac OS 9 all Macs sold since 2002 have come with Mac OS X and would now be considered a regular Mac. (See links below)
