I’ve seen a lot of statistics on the most popular browser and most popular operating system but I thought I’d have a look at the stats I have access too and see is there any differences.

I have several sites with stats and took hits from each to show the percentages of usage across them all. The sites used show a cross section of industries, interests and popularity and represent data from 200,000 hits plus. I used only one months data, that being May 2008.

So, without more ado, the stats:
