I run a number of Debian servers, but of course, these servers have other users (that is who they serve). When you look at it that way, yes, you're right. I suppose I was thinking of user as someone who runs a computer rather than some random internet user who happens to pull a page off my server. If the definition of user is broadened that much, the ratio changes *dramatically*. The middle ground definition would be people with an account (shell, mail, whatever) on a machine, which would of course still mean more users than machines and proves your point. Either way, one figure I'd really like to know is how many unique individuals use Debian directly (managing a server, on the desktop, whatever) on a regular basis. Not much chance of getting a number on that though! Cheers :-) Jonathan
