  I agree.  There may not be that many ("pure") UNIX/Linux people out 
there, but there are still a fairly respectable number of MacOSX users 
- which is now basically a UNIX platform.

  I wouldn't put it past some ISPs to be brain-dead enough to shut off 
anything but Windows,  but they'd get complains faster than you can say 
Darwin..
