I am fairly certain that the metrics from Steam skew towards early
adopters. In a separate thread, Matthew used statistics from error
reporting. I believe these paint a much more balanced picture (but are
not without their own set of issues):

"Right now, of PCs running Ubuntu 12.04 or later,

54.6 % are running 12.04 LTS,
44.9 % are running 12.10, and
0.5 % are running R."
