I think you should ask whether the respondent thinks it's desirable for
the government to support/encourage the use of Linux (based on sampling
biases, you'll probably get an extremely high "yes" response, but it
helps not to ask "how" to people who don't believe "if" and also
produces some nice skewed statistics for publication)


Also, another useful question might be "what (if any) other operating
systems do you use (a) personally, (b) professionally/academically?" so
we can get an idea of who uses Linux exclusively, or Free Software/Open
Source exclusively, or *nix exclusively, or...
