I understand "lots of" > "quite a few" > "a few". And synonyms do not
have exact meaning...
But now I was told that "quite a few" has emphasise meaning "more then
expected".
For me it is normal fact that there are lot of machines with WMI. But if
meaning in commit message should be "I'm surprise how many machines are
with WMI", then "quite a few" better fit.
So choose what you prefer or want...
