PCLinuxOS Bounces Back on Distrowatch

The latest version of Ubuntu, Gutsy Gibbon aka 7.10, was released on 18th October 2007 and it immediately catapulted Ubuntu to top of Distrowatch rankings for 7 days.
PCLinuxOS has dominated Distrowatch rankings since some time and many speculated the rise of Ubuntu as the end of reign of PCLinuxOS  at Distrowatch.
However, release or no release, PCLinuxOS has established itself as a force to reckon with. It immediately bounced back and now again enjoys top position at Distrowatch.
Here are the rankings

  1. Rankings for 7 Days
    Distrowatch Rankings for 7 days
  2. Rankings for 30 Days

Great going PCLinuxOS.

Disclaimer ::
  1. Please do not add HPD of other canonical distributions like Kubuntu, Xubuntu etc as Canonical itself releases them as separate distros, moreover Distrowatch lists them individually.
  2.  I do not mean that PCLinuxOS is more popular than Ubuntu. I agree Ubuntu definitely is much more popular.
  3. These are Distrowatch HPD rankings and I am merely reporting them.
  4. People have not setup any bots or agents to increase PCLinuxOS HPD, the Distrowatch experiment proves this.
