I won't insist (could be 80/20 for example), it's just usually overlooked that it's the geeks who are much more loud out there (while many of "presets users" never write even a single word about that anywhere and/or provide any feedback at all - they're usually simply "get it and use" kind of people by definition). So the proper estimation is somewhat hard, we cannot collect this information only from forums, blogs, comments, particular product feedback and so on (my "belief" is mostly formed at the times when I was engaged mainly as a sound-engineer).
