You're such a buzzkill, Dan ;)

I can see the wedge fine, but it doesn't prove much. It's very difficult, if
not impossible, to accurately measure OS shares, partly due to the fact that
Linux is free so you can't go by number of sales/downloads.

With webservers logging user-agents, things like user-agent spoofing
(User-Agent Switcher extension in Firefox, and built in to browsers like Opera
and Konqueror) skew the results in favour of Windows. Even Wine Gecko will
register as <insert Windows version here> in the user-agent string.

Regardless, this bug is not apparent *for me*. I can't speak for the rest of
the world, but the alternative win32 implementation irritates me much more than
Wine does :)
