Has anyone been keeping an eye on specific desktop use? Not just in
Fedora
but across the board. The 2007 Linux Survey was released with some
interesting results.

"The Red Hat/Fedora family -- which this year includes CentOS -- came in at
the fourth spot with 9 percent. This represents a small loss from last year
when Fedora had 7 percent, while Red Hat added in a mere 2.2 percent, for a
total, including smaller Red Hat/Fedora-based distributions of less than 10
percent."
This is the results of the online survey of 38.000 users asking for
their desktop/laptop usage. There are some odd results such as Gentoo
being on 7% while Mandriva not showing up much at all.
I wasn't even aware they were doing a survey earlier. Interesting
results nevertheless. The usage of thunderbird and virtualbox for example.
