The one thing you always have to take into account with these types of reports is the audience they are measuring. As an example, when I look at the stats for all the hotels put together, IE accounts for 91% of the browsers, Firefox has about 8% and the others account for the remaining 1%.

 

Just interesting to see such different numbers depending on where you look. If you do the same check on a tech site I think you’ll see even lower numbers for IE than reported…it all depends on where you look.

Which would also invalidate the other OS graph.   If Firefox users are predominantly PC users (and we know they are).  That would then extrapolate into much higher Windows OS figures.

 

There is nothing better than good hard figures from a public site.  I think a Hotel site is probably as democratic as it gets – everyone needs the service and it is not a site weighted by high tech users.
