By machine or by vendor?

Every Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD, Solaris, HPUX, MacOS, Windows box switches to TCP
by default.  General purpose computers usually support it.  The nameservers
shipped with these boxes also support TCP.

The places which don't are some middle boxes which ends up breaking
the connection between the general purpose computers and the recursive
resolvers particularly in the home market.

Most of these general purpose computers also support EDNS though it is not
enabled by default.
