Comment Browser usage in a college atmosphere (Score 1) 575
Interesting usage statistics from the union website of a technical university:
Students are required to buy a school-issued Thinkpad. For the last 3 years the Thinkpad has had a 1680 by 1050 screen. Among users of the union website who are on the the school's ISP and using a 1680 by 1050 screen, 53% use Chrome, 38% use Firefox, and 6% use IE. The share of firefox users declines even more when the results are filtered to Windows only.
Data for non-1680 by 1050 screens is as follows: Firefox 54%, Chrome 33%, IE 11%
This shows that college age kids are much more receptive to Google's browser, while professors, staff, and lab users favor Firefox.
