Well, that is debatable, but if you had done your stats on Window or a Mac
maybe you would not have been off, which you are.  :)

Seriously, why are your stats off?  They should be, assuming your numbers
are correct:

Windows     1120152    49.3%    (you listed 49.2%, 0.1 low)
BSD         4524        0.2%    (you listed  0.1%, 0.1 low)
Linux       803711     35.4%    (you listed 35.3%, 0.1 high)
Macintosh   224444      9.9%    (you listed  9.8%, 0.1 low)
Others      120094      5.3%    (you listed  5.2%, 0.1 low)

In each case you are off by 0.1 - with Linux your stat is high, with the
rest your stats are low.  Curious: how do you explain the error?  Seems
weird to be an accident, but I cannot imagine what you would hope to gain by
making it look like Linux had that much smaller of a "bonus" on your stats.
