Operating systems and browsers on vowe dot net
by Volker Weber
Stats for last week. Just a few thoughts:
- Mac OS X is much higher than market share suggests. More than four in five visitors are on Intel Macs.
- A lot more Mac visitors than Linux.
- A year after the release, Vista has not made much progress into the installed base.
- Firefox is the dominant browser. Two out of three have upgraded to the latest version.
- Safari is already at 50% of Internet Explorer.
- There is still a sizable IE6 portion, with IE8 yet to be seen.
Stats on microsoft.com will be completely different.

Interessante Statistik.
Verblüfft haben mich allerdings die über 15% Vista Anteil bei Windows. Dafür dass es eigentlich keiner mag ist der Anteil schon recht hoch. Hätte da mit einem Wert kleiner 10% gerechnet.
Interessant auch, dass bei über 22% Mac-Anteil Safari nur zu 14% vertreten ist. Und das, wo es Safari nun auch für Windows gibt (die Verteilung bei Safari auf Mac/Windows wäre sicher auch nicht ganz uninteressant).
Da sieht man wieviele von den "Wissenden" einen alternativen Browser verwenden. Die Stats bei heise sehen ja auch so ähnlich aus.
0.12% a bit of that is me :)
Any interesting numbers to show on mobile device usage, besides iPhone?
"Mac OS X is much higher than market share suggests. More than four in five visitors are on Intel Macs."
Don't you mean one in five visitors are on a mac? otherwise, not sure how you got your statement there ... :)
John, the stats above are for the last week, not overall.
And hey, you can have Windoze visitors who are actually visiting on Mac / Intel, don’t forget ;o)
John, four in five Mac users are on Intel.
additional thoughts from me are:
- at least 40% of mac users use firefox instead of safari
- vista is performing worse than any windows before
- vowe.net has a lot more entries about mac os (which explains the high level of mac visitors in comparison to linux)
I just switched a month ago from firefox to safari (with xp at work and leopard at home) - and I will probably swap back again soon. safari looks nicer but it's not that compatible to some pages as firefox is.
