    Well he did say 'in its various forms' - but I am puzzled by their stats
    anyway. OpenSuSE and SLES garner a total of 2206 v. Ubuntu 1811, but if you
    look at their 'Response ratio' percentages they do indeed give 51% to Ubuntu,
    and a total of 63% for the same suse combination. Given there are several
    other contenders in their with things like 26%, there seems to be some
    statistical subtlety at work here that my arts-grad brain can't handle.

    Best
