I was browsing through old newspapers, and I found an article about open source software. Apparently they took a survey, and found that most people use Firefox and only 0.5% of them used IE...Okay so it was not a very wide survey, but the chances of finding 198 randomly selected users running Firefox, with two using Linux distros...is supposed to be laughably low.
Here is my reference (it's in Bangla):

Edit: I just realized. Bangla has a good acceptable translation for 'free' which doesn't turn corporations off. I forgot about 'free software'. The whole article uses that translation instead of open source. Really nice.
