That is not true. My public library here in Georgia runs NetBSD on thin-clients. Most research universities in U.S. run mostly mixture of Linux and OS X in my experience. Most of my co-workers and my research students run OpenBSD on their desktops. We do run very few Windows 7 machines and until tomorrow some Linux (due to the lack of love from Linux community I will switch it off to Windows 7).

Statistics are really deceptive. My machine is now listed as Linux. Do I use Linux. Hell NO! I use Opera via Linux emulation. Moreover I am masked as Firefox so I am probably listed as Firefox/Linux. Do you get it?
Just me and my affiliates have probably two dozen of desktops(laptops) and servers running OpenBSD.
