Yes, but how many of the Tiger users are actually buying new software?
Most of the random stats that I have seen have shown that users of
older versions of an OS don't typically lay down $$ for software
anyway. Supporting those that are already your customer is nice/
polite/good, but looking to those markets for new users is likely
futile.
According to Omni's site (http://update.omnigroup.com/), 87.5% of
downloads are to Intel based machines, for example.
