kerneloops.org is indeed a wonderful thing (kudos to Arjan, once again!).

Note, however, that the large number of recent reports isn't necessarily a 
fair comparison with numbers for previous releases.  For the number of 
clients to report to kerneloops.org is not constant.  (eg. it was included 
with Fedora Core 9, but not with Fedora Core 8)

cheers,
