So with Google activating ~800k android Linux systems a day last I heard, 
how do the number of (android) Linux systems (which we've already 
established as having dbus) compare to the number of server Linux systems?

If traditional gnu-linux isn't a minority in its own community already, 
it soon will be.

I sympathize with the sentiment behind the argument, but the numbers game 
really doesn't cut it, or we'd all be running some binary distribution or 
other instead of from-source Gentoo and we'd not be having this 
discussion as it would have already been had for us.  (Yeah, there IS 
rather a lot to be read between THOSE lines!)
