In its Operating System Market Share report for January, Web metrics
company Net Applications showed the Mac OS at 9.93 percent, up from
9.63 percent in December. The iPhone also trended upward to 0.48
percent in January, from 0.44 percent in December.
January figures from Net Applications on operating system share amid
Internet use.
The biggest winner in January, however, was the iPod touch, whose
"explosive" growth in December continued unabated after the holidays,
growing 37.5% to reach a 0.11% Internet share...That means that more
than one out of every 1,000 Web hits in January were made from iPod
touches -- at least according to Net Applications' data.
Use of Windows 7, meanwhile, surged in January after Microsoft
released the public beta of the operating system, the follow-on to
Windows Vista that's due sometime around the end of 2009. The beta
became available January 10 (though not without some stumbling), up to
which point Windows 7 stood at about 0.04 percent. Through most of the
rest of the month, it fluctuated at between roughly 0.12 percent and
0.15 percent. It closed out the month with a jump to 0.23 percent on
January 31, according to Net Applications' breakout on Windows 7.
