   I found some interest in the percentages of the ~1600 readers answering   
   a poll (so far); the numbers represent the status as of about 8 pm Tues   
   evening Pacific time.

   Are you new to Linux because of End of 10?   
      
   Yes - new to Linux because of End of 10: 	65 (4%)   
   New to Linux but not because of End of 10: 	40 (3%)   
   Not new to Linux - switched before End of 10: 	1269 (80%)   
   Not new to Linux - have not switched to Linux: 	210 (13%)

   I was somewhat surprised to see 17% of reader/respondents answering a DW   
   poll who were either new or 'non-linux' users particularly that 3/4 of   
   those weren't linuxers doing the poll.   
      
   But, then after I puzzled over that, I read some of the explanations of   
   those who weren't sure how to classify themselves, so maybe my surprise   
   was 'misguided'; I should've read the answers first and then decided if   
   I was surprised or not :-)
