Not just you Mac users.

I find that often when we are trying to do something with Governmental web sites. If we do not use IE or Opera it will not work right.

Firefox just cant do what they want it to do, or it is coded to sue imbeded IE commands.

Mac users need to use multiple browsers that can mask the OS, because there are still millions of web sites, many of them commercial that block Macs or distort their experience. This isn't some clueless individual who's still using FrontPage either. I had to contact SuperPages.com last week because a random message told me that I needed a newer version of IE--IE was discontinued for Macs years ago--or else I couldn't view their maps.

Masking browser ID and OS has been necessary for Mac users since we figured out how to do it a dozen years ago. It's built into Safari, Opera, iCab, and a simple add-on in Mozilla browsers. Thus, no matter how limited or encompassing the survey population, it won't show all of the Mac users.

More accurately, some specific subset of web use share. If they've got a
single mac-centric website in the mix like 2-pop then all the figures could
be skewed. All current figures I've seen show Mac holding at around 5%, and
I just checked my own AWstats

blah blah blah

Shouldn't it be web usage share?
