Comment(by karsten):

 Sure! Can you let me know what Windows releases you are interested in?
 Below are the numbers of published server descriptors in July 2010 that
 have "Windows" in their platform string with all the "Service Pack" and
 "[workstation]" parts taken out. We should try to combine releases in
 groups (e.g., is "Very recent version of Windows" == "Vista"?). In
 particular, averages of node uptime for rarely used releases may not be
 that meaningful.

 43897 on Windows XP
 33015 on Very recent version of Windows
 17577 on Windows "Longhorn"
 7138 on Windows Server 2003
 731 on Windows 7
 717 on Windows 2000
 223 on Windows 98 SE
 197 on Windows Vista
 13 on Bizarre version of Windows where !GetVersionEx doesn't work.
