My online friends all use Linux or BSD. My real life friends are not technical and use mostly Windows or Mac's

1 currently uses LiveCD's for testing and recovery and is going to put Ubuntu 7.10 on one of his older computers when its out. One did use it before he bought Vista. He then deleted his partition and i had to go in there and save his MBR. Maybe a god thng hes not using Linux.

My dad uses Ubuntu. (He was resistant to switch from Debian, but I convinced him to do so. He's used Debian for years. He was the one who introduced me to Linux.) Other than that, everyone else I know uses Windows or Macs.
