That is pretty fricking cool. It's not an astronomical figure and realistically could be contended from many directions but still some idea of the userbase, I call that significant. =]<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Nov 14, 2007 11:52 AM, Brian Vincent <

<br><br>----<br><br>Hey Brian, we would be more than happy to help. I just did a quick query<br>for the audio device and found 12 out of 8566 results to contain "wine"<br>in the name of the driver. I did the same for video card and found zero,
<br>if you can give me more details on specific strings or signatures for a<br>wine user I could have a look for. We just started this survey today so<br>I can run the queries again once we have a larger sample set.<br><br>
Our crash reporting system also collects information about the existence<br>of wine, about 0.4% of the reports are from Wine users (this is for a<br>couple months of data so a statistically significant sample). We have<br>
around 3 million unique users in a month so that is around 12k wine<br>users. Given the large majority of crashes are game code related (and<br>not OS dependant) I suspect this is a fair measure for you.<br><br>----<br><font color="#888888">
