"Longhorn Beta 1 is still a few weeks away from release. And Office 12 Beta 1 isn't slated to debut until this fall. But that isn't stopping Microsoft from peeling back the covers on some of the new features slated for the pair of products due to ship in the latter half of 2006."

That is not correct. Slashdot _has_ more Windows users then Linux/BSD/Mac users. They ran browser/OS stars back in the day but removed it because of the humiliation that more than 2/3 were Windows users. Taco's answer was 'I stopped logging it'. I guess there would be more Linux users now than then if they'd make their stats open. Or maybe not? Maybe that's why they're still not making their stats public...
Member since:hardly. Our site for the privateer remake got slashdotted back in may. By the end of the day, our total number of visitors ever was 10 times as large as before the slashdotting. The percentage of visitors using Linux went from 16% to 15%. Safe to say about 15% of the slashdotters who visited us that day used Linux then.
I thought it was pretty sad a slashdotting didn't raise our linux percentage at all

That still means nothing. People would think slashdot would get more people on a non windows os, but they didnt. They had over 95% on windows, 3% on os X and the remaining 2% on VARIOUS other os'
