I'd like to hear the statistics of this too.  But I guess these are not
considered as in the Unix-for-Intel *MAARKET* since Linux and 386bsd are
*FREE*.  :-)

Another thing: Lately I started to play with Unix-for-Intel (SCO Unix, etc),
surprisingly, C compiler/TCP/IP network components are not included in the
OS system (Most Unix-for-non-Intel come with those components).  Those
components are always in separate packages which can add lots of additional
cost.  This practice seems to be usual for Intel-based systems (DOS, OS/2).
How about Linux and 386bsd, do they come with C Compiler and TCP/IP/NFS?
What about compiled gcc excuctables for SCO Unix, Linux and 386bsd, any
ftp sites for those?  Thanks.
