I agree. I only claimed "Firefox use is 4x that of IE, GNU/Linux use is 4x
Vista, 1/2 of all Windows OSes on my new website!!"

Exactly.
What is the question no has asked yet ?
How do my current stats vary from older ones ?
(My GNU/Linux/Slackware home server has been going a long time.)
Here are my home server stats from October 2008:
Note Windows usage is 74.5 % and Linux is 16.3 %
Compare that to stats from this week ?
This weeks stats from my new web server=====
Windows OS = 64.1 %,
Linux = 29.7 %,
IE = 3565 13.8%
FIREFOX = 17061 66.3 %
================================
You can see Windows is dropping and Linux is increasing, and it's the *same*
content, in fact my new site has *no* real Linux content yet..

If we wish to reduce our ignorance, there are people we will
indeed listen to. Trolls are not among those people, as trolls, more or
less by definition, *promote* ignorance.
