Assume you are talking about hardware platforms here. Debian only has popularity information for architectures, not more specific than that. They don't exactly measure popularity, but the install howtos and installation reports are probably useful. Outside Debian there is the Linux Hardware Database, which allows folks running Linux to voluntarily submit details of their Linux distribution and hardware. The project also publishes some monthly statistics about the submissions. I gently suggest that Lenovo should be ensuring that all their Linux capable hardware is represented in the database with at least one probe :) https://popcon.debian.org/ https://wiki.debian.org/InstallingDebianOn https://bugs.debian.org/installation-reports https://wiki.debian.org/Hardware/Database https://linux-hardware.org/ https://linux-hardware.org/?view=timeline&d=Debian https://github.com/linuxhw/Trends/tree/master/Dist/Debian > Anybody want to setup a Debian survey? :) I guess the surveys site would be the place to do that and the publicity team could help draw attention to it from the desired audience. https://surveys.debian.net/ https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/Publicity https://wiki.debian.org/DeveloperNews > So we have a few platforms coming out in the next few months.

I've seen previous models of X1 Carbon at DebConf in past years. -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
