They are going to be under-counted. I only need to download it once to my file server to distribute to all my clients. It is interesting that software for the desktop could take such a share against the monopoly. People running that other OS have to choose to download and to install FireFox. I wonder how many will find and choose to install Ulteo in a similar manner. 20%+ in four years would be a phenomenal shift in the world of IT. Unlike FireFox, users of Ulteo could gain improved performance and migrate cleanly to GNU/Linux as a result of the installation. Ulteo could be promoted as an easy installation of a package of applications: OpenOffice.org, FireFox, Gimp, etc. We live in interesting times. Change is happening everywhere in IT and a lot of it seems for the better. Shucks! They are going to be under-counted.
