Visitors' Operating Systems

I've been keeping an eye on Google Analytics to track the operating systems of visitors to help me determine who I should be writing AppleScripts for. Looking at August 28 (SL's debut) thru September 20 (about 90k visits):

  • Intel 10.6 - 44.38%
  • Intel 10.5 - 43.91%
  • PPC 10.5 - 4.0%
  • Intel 10.4 - 3.04%
  • PPC 10.4 - 2.84%

To put a finer point on it, here are the stats for the week September 13 thru September 20 (about 25k visits):

  • Intel 10.6 - 52.24%
  • Intel 10.5 - 36.54%
  • PPC 10.5 - 3.83%
  • PPC 10.4 - 2.90%
  • Intel 10.4 - 2.72%

I think I can pretty much drop explicit support for Tiger and PPCs. Snow Leopard adoption appears to be somewhat brisk, which is fine by me because I've been writing stuff on two machines running Leopard and Snow Leopard respectively and it's making my brain hurt.
