I was just wondering which GNU/Linux distribution is popular in which part of the world. I am not trying to start a distro war here, just curious to know if any statistics are available about the popularity of distributions based on location.

Thanks.

How is there no way to answer this? The OP is after links and references to demonstrate popularity. I can provide several such links to authorative sources for this. – Matt Joiner Feb 21 '11 at 12:04
I do not think this is subjective or argumentative. I just wanted to know if these statistics were available. For example we can use Google Insights and get info regarding the search for some key words. I was just curious to know if someone has already made similar statistics. So if possible I would like to re-open this (as this was marked closed). Thanks. – yaami Feb 21 '11 at 18:09

At my company, we use combinations of Redhat and OEL for production servers and Fedora and Ubuntu for development/user systems. These are in a number of locations in US and in UK, India and Australia.

That's not so general answer in any way, unless your company is really huge. – Olli Feb 21 '11 at 8:10
