These stats rely on ppl installing / enabling software ... with PC-BSD, this is 
done automatically, which is what is putting their numbers up so fast ... I 
don't know enough about sysinstall to get it so that it at least prompts new 
installs to install/enable, but I think that that is the next step ... still 
not 'enable by default' ..
