 OpenOffice have 11 million active U.S. users?&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

OpenOffice.org.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Importantly, ClickStream wasn&amp;#8217;t measuring installations. It 
was measuring use. The company actually installed client-side software that 
tracked which applications the users were running.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Asay calculates OOo users in the USA to number 11 million, concluding:&lt;/p&gt;

there are numerous ways to share the code.&lt;/p&gt;
-&lt;p&gt;Eventually the mainstream media will catch on and report the large 
number of OOo users, which will cause even more people to switch, but until

Google Docs? Or do they use OOo?)&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>
