Not only that, but a lot of Linux users probably aren't going to download it from the OOo web site, they're going to get it when it becomes the default through their distro's packaging infrastructure, and therefore they presumably won't be counted in this statistic.

I would therefore expect 99% of OOo downloads to be the Windows version.

So of OOo's potential audience, I would guess 99% would be Windows users, 1% Linux users. I haven't checked recently, but for a long time, OOo's support for MacOS X lagged way, way behind. In fact, I think 80% is surprisingly low.įirst off, we really shouldn't count Macs as part of the equation.

Why is 80% surprising? The article makes it sound like that's high, but Windows has more than 80% of the desktop market, so it's still a lower percentage.
