I know the following sources, but these ones don't seem to give arguments for your statement (maybe because they are too global). <a moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.thecounter.com">http://www.thecounter.com</a> > Global Stats  (currently Linux: 1% vs Mac 4%) <a moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://marketshare.hitslink.com/report.aspx?qprid=9">http://marketshare.hitslink.com/report.aspx?qprid=9</a> (currently Linux: 0,67% vs Mac 7,57% and the trend seems to be in favor of Mac) Could it be possible to clarify 'growing faster... in desktop/mobile/server/all' and 'most countries'=? BTW Some time ago somebody posted the results of some Belgian survey somewhere where we could read that Linux is the most popular Linux distribution in Belgium, but I can't seem to find that message any more.
