WITH A population of about 400,000 and median age estimated at around 42.2 years we cannot dismiss Guadeloupe as totally insignificant due to its size.

Here's how statCounter 'sees' it on desktops and laptops:

It should be noted that the estimates of GNU/Linux usage are now in 4.5% territories, not even counting ChromeOS.
