I never even heard about this survey. The results seem... wrong. "Crunchbang" is more popular on servers than OpenSUSE, and Red Hat doesn't exist...

  I was a bit surprised to see Xubuntu just trailing Fedora.

  If Red Hat does not exist then what is this www.redhat.com ? Anyway he is using RHEL (Red Hat enterprise Linux) in the survey results not Red Hat.

    He didn't say Red Hat is fictional, he said he can't see Red Hat in the graph (and that was only because he was looking at the wrong graph). I can see why you might have misunderstood him though. "Does not exist" could be read both ways.

  Are we looking at the same results? I dont see crunchbang even listed for servers (which woudnt make any sense, cause its just debian). I do see RHEL (the expensive version" as well as CentOS (the "gratis" version) in the list. Just the name Red Hat, isnt a distrobution. Its the name of a company. Fedora, RHEL and CentOS are.

    I think I misread the graph "What Linux distro do you primarily use on your non-server computers?" which shows a legend of: * Non-server users * Server users

    CentOS isn't run by Red Hat. I wasn't sure if that was implied by your post or just listed as a reference of distribution names. So just in case it was implied... :)

  The results are only representative of /r/linux readers, not linux users as a whole.
