Anybody 'extra' bandwidth from the 'Cloud'? Ubuntu installations currently trumps the combined numbers of Centos, Fedora and RHEL (not that using Centos/Fedora/RHEL guarantees secure installations) installations and I just wondered on that aspect.
On another note, I wonder how big a change will take place in the demographics when Centos 6 'hits the streets'.

I'm guessing "linux" is an average of all of the flavors there so you can compare "linux" with something like windows.

Surely that should have been "total" instead of average to do any comparisons. I guess it's any installation that's the total of customized enough or marked as "other" distributions. I guess if Google's stats were available, their servers would come up as Linux kernel-running machines but not any known distribution.

Dunno. And what would the point of an "average" be, if the total for all flavors of *Nix was way up there? What would it show, compared to this, that Windows was *way* down below?
