Hi Chad, Checkout www.bsdstats.org. A very cool project to start tracking BSD usage. Also, we've placed Google Analytics on www.pcbsd.org (and we should probably add it to freebsd.org, too) and have interesting operating system stats from there that we'll make public after a substantial amount of data is gathered. best, -matt
