yes, yes, yes & yes (respectively (smile)). however, there's no conflict: the Linux-count group don't offer a figure for the % of UK Linux users who use Mandrake (the estimate i reported). nor BTW do the group seem to say how they make their counts: if it's by those who register with the group, it has little reliability. -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb : [EMAIL PROTECTED] ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Centre for Urban & Community Studies TRANSIT `-O----------O---' University of Toronto ; To UNSUBSCRIBE: Send "unsubscribe lynx-dev" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
