| | Linux Counter: Estimates of the number of Linux users (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-06) |
 | | The lower limit is something like what is counted in the Linux Counter (140.000 at the moment), but even this is not certain; people may have stopped using Linux after registering, or may be registered under 2 different emails. |
 | | Nowadays, 140k users are registered at the Linux Counter, but in october 2001 200k users were registered, and the users who didn't visited their accounts within the last two years were deleted. |
 | | So, if we estimate 40K of the 90K removed users still use Linux, we could estimate 180k unique users should be in the Linux Counter, of which 40k should have visited the Linux Counter to keep their entries alive, but didn't. |
