Heck, I don't even know how many installations are in my city - and that's only a couple hundred thousand people!
The next question concerns "what's a site?" Does a site need a mainframe? Or can the physical equipment be across the country or somewhere else on another continent? I know of at least 2 companies that have development staff local (one has hundreds of developers) but no hardware because their equipment is all at other locations. We also have another large installation that will remain nameless that has lots of equipment but a skeleton staff maintaining it. All operations, development, etc is elsewhere, they just have a data center here. Which of these qualifies as a site or an installation?
