No. I'm saying you're basing on unreliable data. If I got you right, users who
wish mac os-style are a minority but you think there is a majority "hidden"
amongst those who said no that would actually mean yes. As long as 21% say
yes it means to me 79% say no. If you want to convince me that a majority
want it mac os-style, you'll have to get over 50% of yes

You didn't read me right. What I find Windows-like is the way Mac OS tells the
user how (s)he is supposed to work. There are LOTS of KDE defaults I change
first thing when installing (depending on the distribution: the double click
mouse, the windows buttons, the icons, etc...). So as I said, IF a majority
of users prefer the default to be mac os-like, ok, let's do it.
For the time being I'm not convinced this is a majority, that's all.

Same question to you ;)
