Desktop Linux Survey results analyzed
Aug. 29, 2006

The results of DesktopLinux.com's 2006 Desktop Linux Market survey are in, and the roughly 15,000 votes are all tallied. This first article of a series offers a perspective on how the various desktop Linux distributions fared, and why.

"This is in no way, shape, or form a scientific survey," writes DesktopLinux.com columnist Steven J. Vaughan-Nichols. "Anyone who wanted to vote could vote. We did make sure that we didn't have a Chicago-style election with multiple votes from one person -- or IP address, anyway -- but that was about it."

Nonetheless, Vaughan-Nichols wrote, "when all is said and done, we do think that our survey does say some interesting things about the current state of desktop Linux. So, without further adieu, here's what we found."

So, taking that queue, check out the rest of Vaughan-Nichols's assessment:
