Many browsers identify as IE to get around page restrictions (I do this with Konqueror). But I don't doubt that actual Linux usage is miniscule.

BTW a more tellingly depressing fact - the Irish don't like us any more.

I run Linux and only Linux. The time-punch application at my latest gig requires some form of IE. So I had my co-consultant hit my website, grabbed his UserAgent string, and made it my own.

I then showed the IT folks here at work how to do same so they could install Linux/Mozilla on some boxen and replace Winders systems with said boxen.

Ain't my fault their silly app thinks it requires Internot Exploder. I just do what I have to do to circumvent it.
