Last month Windows Vista accounted for 4.52 percent of all systems that browsed the web, up from January’s 0.18 percent, according to Net Applications. In the same time frame, Mac OS X usage stayed flat.
Vista has grown its usage share each month since its release to consumers Jan. 30, hitting 0.93 percent in February, 2.04 percent in March, 3.02 percent in April and 3.74 percent in May, notes PC World. Mac OS X, meanwhile, accounted for 6.22 percent in January and hit its high point of 6.46 percent in May, but it slipped back to 6 percent in June.
If Vista’s uptake trend continues, it should pass Mac OS X in Web usage share by the end of August.
