Looking at the results this morning, it doesn't look like much has moved
except for AS/400. Linux & Solaris have gained three each, but AS/400 has
gone up by 27 - I wonder how that's happened ;) Anyway, as it's an OS
poll, why isn't it OS/400 in the list instead? Do only iSeries users know
the difference?

Solaris 1457     30.22%
Linux    924     19.17%
AIX      856     17.76%
HP-UX    564     11.70%
FreeBSD  347      7.20%
AS/400   228      4.73%
Tru-64   223      4.63%
Windows  222      4.60%
Total:  4821    100.00%

One way of looking at the results is that more than 95% of voters think
Windows is the worst OS ;)
