"Many", huh?

"R.I.P.: The Web 2.0 Office Suite"

"Ninety-four percent of U.S. consumers have never tried a Web-based
productivity suite alternatives. A mere 0.5 percent have substituted
Web-based productivity suites for desktop software such as Microsoft
Office. Chris Swenson, NPD's director of Software Industry Analysis,
described the 0.5 percent figure as being a "bit high." Swenson predicted
worldwide usage to be even lower than the United States. "
