That's why Microsoft can't beat FOSS. Too much participation.

| The record is 15,067,570 downloads (15 Million). Country wise, USA tops the

| relatively small countries like Iran and France clocked more downloads than
| its larger counterparts like India and China.

How Can We Harness the Firefox Effect?

,----[ Quote ]
| Three things are striking about the recent launch of Firefox 3. First, the
| unanimity about the quality of the code: practically everyone thinks it's
| better in practically every respect. Secondly, the way in which the
| mainstream media covered its launch: it was treated as a normal, important
| tech story – gone are the days of supercilious anecdotes about those wacky,
| sandal-wearing free software anoraks. And finally – and perhaps most
| importantly - the scale and intensity of participation by the millions of
| people who have downloaded the software in the last week.
