Mountain Lion fee

According to the web of analytics on the Internet, Net Applications, Mountain Lion is already the most popular version of OS X among users, just five months after its launch in July 2012.

During the month of December, 32% of all Macs that have connected to the internet had OS X 10.8 installed. On the other hand, the use of Lion (the previous version of OS X) has dropped from 30% to 28% so there are still users who are making the leap to Apple's latest creation for their computers.

It should also be mentioned that Snow Leopard, which was released in 2009, still maintains a fairly significant usage quota despite his age. Specifically, OS X 10.6 represents 29% of Macs that are connected to the Internet.

All these figures do not surprise us. Lion was a heavily criticized operating system, Mountain Lion upgrade prices are very affordable and Mac sales are growing as well, so their internet presence is growing too.

The source that has provided this data collects usage data from 160 million users around the world each month, being able to offer at any time the graphics of the browsers and operating systems that people use.
