Just more of the Linux hypocrites talking out of both sides of their
mouths.

Linux (OSS, Free software) can't be measured when the numbers don't look
good, which is most of the time.

Linux (OSS, Free software) CAN be measured, when the numbers look good,
which is rare.

And you are correct, the vast percentage of those ueser are Windows users,
not Linux desktop users.
Linux on the desktop useage is so low it doesn't even show on the radar
acreen.
Also, since there are about 15 different browsers for Linux, that will cut
into firefox's linux numbers even more.
