BSDstats has a very long way to go before the numbers start to look 
rasonable ... for PCBSD, the #s are pretty reasonable, because they set it 
up so that its auto-enabled when  you intall ... for FreeBSD, the numbers 
aren't even close, since ppl have to manually install it ...

the numbers are growing ... since the start of May, I've seen the numbers 
jump by almost 2k new computers, so it is growing ... but ppl have to 
consciously install the software ...
