Your statistics is a tracker of fanboys clicking "me too" buttons.
Real stats come from e.g. daily data-usage over large ranges of
websites, e.g. NetApplications. See

for a quick overview, also see

http://www.netmarketshare.com/report.aspx?qprid=9&qpcustom=Blackberry

Quick breakdown:
Windows is 91%
Mac is 5%
iOS (iPad/iPhone) is 1.25%
Linux - for all of the above distributions together - is 0.86%, and going down
Android is 0.27%
Blackberry is 0.10%
(all mobiles are going up)

Chrome is fine with FFmpeg and has a market share tenfold of all Linux together.

VLC is fine with FFmpeg and had 177 million downloads since their 1.0 release.

Fedora 13 has 2.5M users according to Fedora. Ubuntu claims 12M users.
Not very much. Fantastic market share indeed. Let's all roll over and
play dead for Fedora.
