    It'ś amazing...
    Just the other day, I noticed that members passed the quarter mill mark.
    About the same time I noticed about 1500 new members in about 2 days.
    And just now about 500 in half a day...

    This growth rate is incredible.
    Congratulations to everybody working on and with Ubuntu.

    I also bet a lot of the Windows users are people who are curious about switching to Ubuntu and are doing their research first... I lurked the forums for quite a while before I made the switch myself because I wanted to have a good idea of what I was doing

    Neat stats, thanks for sharing!
