Default How many motherboards are actually bootable from USB stick?

Recently I had a discussion about how many of the motherboards are actually bootable from
USB stick.

So I ask you.

If you look on all the motherboards which are sold in lets say the last 3 years:
What would you say: How many percent of them are capable to boot from U3 USB sticks?

I think it is less than 20%

Am I right?

J.
