Proof please. I see Linux at %30+ in some technical sites. Linux sites show
that Windows has just a small proportion (less than 40%) and this niche is
rarely (if ever) accounted for in surveys, commissioned by companies.
There's also header forging, diversity in strings, Squid, "Other or N/A"...

I mentioned this before. The 100-150 Windows zombie PCs out there often work
more heavily than an idle PC. Maybe we should start basing O/S stats on
E-mail. I hear that 19 out of 20 E-mails are sent from a Windows zombies. It
aligns with what I observe in my E-mail accounts...they should call it
Outlook Expunge...
