s390 is a little special, because it's neither a desktop nor a server architecture, but rather a mainframe one. One software installation can service many thousands of users; these are the things IBM was talking about when they thought they would only sell five of them. So it will always be disproportionately low by this measure. Exactly how far different it is from the rest is difficult to tell. The other architectures don't have that excuse. -- .''`. ** Debian GNU/Linux ** | Andrew Suffield : :' : http://www.debian.org/ | `. `' | `- -><- |
