- Phocion55, on 10/13/2007, -1/+16Should I book you a one-way flight out of the US, then? It would be my pleasure.
- iFungus, on 10/13/2007, -1/+15One more possibility, Windows, which has no quality and costs money. All bases covered!
- wallyf, on 10/10/2007, -5/+18what a lame map
- joelito, on 10/10/2007, -0/+9The guy who came up with the Idea on /. was asking for people to help with entering data(the accounts) I didn't think that map was ready for Digg yet
- SendDerek, on 10/10/2007, -2/+10This is great! I've been trying to find a good list of Governments/Businesses switching over to Open Source and Linux. I hope that this becomes one of the most comprehensive lists as people add more to it.
Good find! - drakethegreat, on 10/10/2007, -6/+13Wow this has got to be the biggest waste of my time, even on a Sunday...
- Phocion55, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5This map is clearly driven by members of ListPhile. You have to sign up to add something to the map.
Give it time to grow. - qwuinc, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5Works now, but in need of contributors :-)
- fugazi, on 10/10/2007, -7/+112,800 computers counts as massive? Wow they really are desperate in getting recognition.
- Rocksea24, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4Apparently Linux is only widely popular in the Northern Hemisphere.
- dhughes, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4 *raises hand*
I'm in Canada, I use Linux as my only OS.
I do know I'm not the only one out of about 35 million people. - reed311, on 10/10/2007, -7/+10Great map. I love how Florida and Pennsylvania are marked as their own countries.
Spam. - CCmachined, on 10/13/2007, -0/+2moving to Windows? from what, exactly?
- icsbase, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2I am a Linux user myself but where is that massive use ... I can't spot in from the picture.
- inactive, on 10/13/2007, -0/+21.5 million students in Kerela use linux. And it is not mentioned.
- skrowl, on 10/10/2007, -4/+5BlogSpam
- BillyG123, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I've had one for a few years now that I add to whenever I come across a news story: http://www.billy-girlardo.com/Maps/OSS/
- tubeblender, on 10/13/2007, -0/+1Douche bag
- Erowid, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Wow.... The only entry in Canada is my hometown....... And like 3 people live there :/
- justcursedme, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2Someone should really resubmit this to digg. It's got potential, still.. . Volume is the keyword on digg. Buried for being a bit lame.
- andreyknure, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0Being a technical support engineer of web hosting providers I would like to say Linux is one the best operating systems which is widely used in the web hosting industry. Just take a look at the web hosting companies placed at my web page - www.andreyknure.narod.ru All these companies use Linux to manage their servers.
- protocode, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0Kind of disappointing Antarctica isn't representing...
- Talcire, on 10/13/2007, -1/+0Wouldn't know about the sys admins, but Linux people act like they are better than the rest of us. Almost as annoying as Mac users. These are the same kids that fought over Nintendo and Sega, only now they are bigger.
- alexra, on 10/13/2007, -3/+2who cares about linux, no one really uses it
- Trenton, on 10/13/2007, -2/+1Everything else is not?
- BassCadet, on 10/13/2007, -4/+2Where's the map that shows all the corporations going from Linux to Windows because they're tired of dealing with prima donna system administrators?
I'm sure I'll get dugg down, but for every company moving to Linux there are two moving to Windows. At least, that's what I see as consultant. - inactive, on 10/10/2007, -6/+2Who cares about Linux around the world, that new website Listphile looks pretty sweet, i'm getting an account now
- qwuinc, on 10/10/2007, -8/+3Not only an account, but a new server to be hosted on, it seems...
- ButterBuddha, on 10/10/2007, -9/+4"...which countries have massive Linux deployments." I didn't realize people studied Linux usage in terms of troop movements...
- OS2Guy, on 10/13/2007, -14/+3Kind of sparse. Sad after all the years of users claiming Linux to be a contender.
- 7of7, on 10/25/2007, -37/+4Countries to avoid because they care more about money than quality.
