“”The total number of users has always been an
incredibly difficult number to measure,” Paul Frields, Fedora’s
project leader, told InternetNews.com. “If you total up all the
unique IP’s … on Fedora 7, 8 and 9, it adds up to about 9.5
million boxes right now.”

“The Fedora figures come out as the major players in Linux
continue jockeying for position as the dominant vendor in the
space, while also competing to make inroads against proprietary
software. The news also comes as Frields and his team and ramping
up to deliver their next release, Fedora 10, which is slated for
Nov. 25th.”
