It's not that much of a strangle hold, to be honest.  Netcraft modified 
their surveys, and now don't include default installs, that aren't real web 
sites.  They call them "active" sites, and the percentages are very close.

http://www.netcraft.com/survey/index-200007.html#active has the 
gossip.  The interesting bit is at the bottom, where we see:

OS              Hosts           %       Active          %
Linux           6,116,811       35.73   2,265,095       29.99
Microsoft       3,644,187       21.32   2,222,841       28.32

Apache is still in front, but not by a heck of a lot.
