| Funny, various Microbots have told me that FF isn't used in the enterprise. Could they have been wrong??? |

Its possible there is one PC with Firefox installed in 18% of companies ...
"but large-scale, companywide deployments are not yet typical" The *nix geek in the basement has a copy. |

| It says 18% among business users, not among businesses. |

ya gotta love it.
I'm convinced that parkker has some sort of alarm system monitoring this web site. Whenever the word "Firefox" shows up, the alarms go off... whamp whamp whamp. doing doing doing... Attention! Attention! Firefox discussion in progress. Firefox discussion in progress! I vision Parkker sliding down a pole and and landing in his Microsoft-Blue, steel-toed boots, and a mini-tram carries him to his computer which has automatically entered the web site and has a reply window open and ready... |

#3 The quote from the report actually says:
"Adoption in the enterprise nearly doubled to 18% by the end of 2007, but large-scale, companywide deployments are not yet typical." I would read that as 18% of enterprises has Firefox somewhere in the enterprise, but it hasn't actually been deployed widely. #4 Someone has to correct the misconceptions.

| #4: It's funny to watch, that's for sure. |

I work for a Fortune 500 company, and I have Firefox installed. However, my company is no where near using FF as a standard. So count me as part of the 18% being "somewhere" in the enterprise. This is a meaningless statistic. How many companies use FF as their standard should be the real question. I suspect the answer would be less than 5%.
