Are you running Linux as your desktop?

[Fernando Duran]

Hi,

An online survey is an awful way to get meaningful data. A much better way (but 
still imprecise) method is to look at the statistics from web server logs and it 
seems that Linux clients are about 2% - 5% of all clients (desktops or not), see 
for 
example http://www.networkworld.com/community/blog/linux-desktop-market-share-small-no-matter-ho 


These percentages are in line with what I see in the web servers I manage.

Cheers,
