Thank you so much for the overwhelming response to our What OS Do You Use? poll a few issues back.
Over 1,000 of you participated and the results were more-or-less what we expected, with a few surprises thrown in (and some awesome comments).
Here’s the breakdown: The majority of you are using 10.6 (42%), with 10.7 in second place at about half that with 26%. From there, 10.5 received 9% of the vote, followed by 6% who are using some version of Windows (7/Vista/XP). Roughly 2% are holding tight with OS 9 and about 7% selected “Other.”
I was surprised that 10.7 garnered over 25%, actually, since I expected the “early adopter” numbers to be a bit lower. Coupled with 10.6, those two produced almost 70% of the vote! I also loved seeing the “other” OSs people are using, notably, versions of Ubuntu, OS 8.6 (wow!) and Linux.
Thanks again to everyone who participated—we’ll keep all of this in mind when writing future content for Kibbles & Bytes!
