I'm not sure the OP was making this claim exactly -- I think they just meant for any particular interest (like running Plan 9 on some old hardware) there were probably only a few hundred people around who shared that particular interest.

Could be. But any particular interest is def not true (windows programming), so more like some niche interest. But this is the definition of niche interest, isnt it.

I can count on one hand the number of people I’ve met that did windows programming, both before or after 2005.
