Time for a new disto poll?

[scrlk]

The current poll is 4 years old and oddly includes OSX as one of its options. I think it's time for a new poll.

 

[jack.mitchell]

I agree that it's time, make sure to include Archlinux!

Can we not get you, TNTcoder or BigglesPHP to get mod status for linux forum?

We seem to be neglected...

 

[Apopcalyptic]

Perhaps add Gentoo and CrunchBang (since both Ubuntu and Mint feature, and CrunchBang seems popular around here)?

My list is better becaause it has more options. It would be interesting to see more options as the data will not be stacked like this:


Ubuntu -----------------------------------------------
Mint -------------------------------------------------------
Arch ------------------------
Fedora ------------------------------------
OTHER ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Not enough options = data is meaningless.

I was going to suggest perhaps the top 25 from distrowatch.org?

edit - Which is more or less the list that Oxy just posted
