Windows market share dips below 90%

As libraries get heavily involved home-based use of our resources it is useful to consider these two numbers:

Share of the internet connected computer market
MS Windows 89.5%
Apple OsX 8.9%
Linux 0.83%

Windows market share dips below 90%, report says.

So, what does your testing of your web resources look like?

I've blogged about browser market share changes and this shows pretty clearly that the home and youth market is driving Apple operating system share higher too. "Net Applications also found that Internet Explorer's market share dropped below 70 per cent for the first time in November. Rival Firefox ended the month with just over 20 per cent of internet users, with Apple's Safari coming in third with 7.1 per cent."

How often do you look at a random/selected set of your web pages and applications in all major browsers and on Apples and PCs?
