Sorry Charlie... but I think it's about accurate. Of those PC's many may be running alternatives to Linux and Windows (try the BSD's, then there are the OS2 Warp hold outs... and even some DOS boxes, which is not Windows)

[url=http://counter.li.org/estimates.php]This is an outdated[/url] link and a guestimate to boot. But based on the fact that Europe, Asia and South America along with parts of Africa are all moving in large numbers to Linux. I think my number is about on target.

I know, I know it just irks you to no end that that damn penguin OS keeps getting popular and installed. But that's the fact and just because we aren't seeing such a large adoption here... doesn't mean it isn't happening elsewhere.
