Well, make up your mind: is anyone using Linux or not?
If one assumes 100M desktop PCs in the US and 0.8%
of them are using Linux, one gets 800,000 at a minimum.
Even if one goes with the relatively ancient 0.24% one
still gets almost a quarter million.
Both are greater than 1 last I checked -- and I'm being
rather conservative, as many users probably have more
than one PC, are using virtual emulators such as VmWare,
and other such bodgeries. Also, both 0.8% and 0.24%
have been questioned in the past.
