"All-time High for GNU/Linux: 44.6% Market Share

boycottnovell.com ¡X A look at what GNU/Linux distributions are used by our
readers, almost half of whom use GNU/Linux (based on around half a million
pagviews a month) "


........Oh yea, I forgot one *minor* detail.

That is Schestowitz posting about his own site.......
