OpenSource Mac stats
By Pulkit Sharma

SourceForge is dedicated to making open source projects successful.  Its website provides the tools that 2.7 million developers use to create powerful software in over 260,000 projects. Its popular directory connects more than 46 million consumers with these open source projects and serves more than 2,000,000 downloads a day. SourceForge is where open source happens.

At the SourceForge blog, Amy Vernon has blogged about the how an unprecedented number of Mac users are using open source software


We combed through about two years’ worth of data on SourceForge, looking at the platforms of the users who downloaded projects, and millions more Mac users are downloading open source projects now than were in February 2010. In the same time, Windows downloads have increased by a much smaller percentage and Linux downloads have actually declined.
