Hi Richmond,
I tend to be more optimistic on people's responses. :)
As afar as Linux is concerned, you piqued mu interest as I have been
watching Linux with a keen eye for years. When I went to check out how
Torvald's O/S was doing, I found this...

Not very encouraging, is it. Linux may not be a "wild coyote lurking on
the fringes," but at #5 of 5 and only 0.75%, Linux has it's work cut out
for itself.
FMI - If you know of other sites that have different results, please let
me know. I always like to get a comprehensive perspective.
Fair winds,
Calvin
