Just noticed a pull down menu with previous dates so you can see how the stats have been evolving - nice.

Never the less, these numbers don't really mean much. (E.g. people running IE6/7 under wine, servers that are never being used to browse the net, embedded applications, etc)
True, but it is definitely representative of linux-desktop-users. And from a desktop perspective, linux awareness / usability / appeal needs to increase drastically.
Just my views.

A good example is Skype. This is a fun device that lets you talk all over the world using the Internet. Yes they do produce a Linux version. On Windows a cam camera with a mike aboard is all you need. You set the camera so it see's you and you can talk through it. On Fedora 8 you get the VERY latest model and it will run. The web cam does not even find Skype or Skye it. But it does limp along with voice. This is so much fun I do it on my laptop with windows.
