That begs the question of whether or not people who refuse surveys are biased towards any particular OS. I'd guess they'd be more likely to use Linux than Windows, so the actual percentage is probably higher. But, unfortunately they are difficult to study.

Though not impossible. First ask if they prefer Windows or Linux. Then ask them if they are willing to participate in a study.
