None, except for knowing you are counted, which helps against the false claims as "It's not worth it to program for Linux, or also write a Linux driver" because it is a waste for so few.

Mmm. If that is the number of linux users in the whole world, no one will make software for Linux. I don't see that registration doing a difference.
I just registered again, the second time since the counter got going and the reply email says you should login at least once per year to avoid being deleted. I wondered why my registration of many years ago wasn't there. It was a useful guage way back, but now it's meaningless. I'm now 389545 and I've been involved with Linux since October 1991 and I wonder how many times that number has been handed out. Regards Sid. -- Sid Boyce ...
