FYI. This was the result of a survey in a libretto mailing list that
I'm on. 1/2 of all the librettos in this survey ran FreeBSD! While
the numbers look very skewed, this is from a list that has more
traffic on Win95 and Linux than anything else.

Subject: Libretto/OS survey
Hi everyone,
Well here are the initial results of my survey of what OS people
run on what version Libretto. I know that the sample was biased
but I was surprized to see the number of systems running multiple
OSs on the Libretto.
And it would seem that the answer to the question that started
the survey in the first place is that no one is running NT 5.0
on a Libretto.
OS Japanese L20 Japanese L60 50 70 100
Win95 3 2
Win98 1 1
WinNT 4.0 1
MSDOS 6.22 1
FreeDOS 1
FreeBSD 1 1 8
Linux 3 1 2
BSD/OS 1
Plan 9 1
Total number of responses: 20
The sum of all the numbers in the above table are greater than the
total responses because of the number of multiOS systems ( 5 )
Most common responses to questions:
What is good about the Libretto: the size
What is bad about the Libretto: the size
What is good about the OS: ability to run REAL apps (as opposed
to WinCE -- an interesting common theme
for ALL OS users!)
What is bad about the OS: lack of driver support
I have created a Web page for the Libretto
http://www.taygeta.com/libretto.html
The page is under construction, but it has a Web form for adding
to the survey if you haven't already done so.
