Microsoft IE Browser Share Dips Below 50%
alphadogg writes "Microsoft's Internet Explorer, which has dominated the Web browser market since blowing by Netscape in the late 1990s, last month fell below the 50% market share level for the first time in years. IE's share of the worldwide market fell to 49.87% in September, down from 51.3% in August and 58.4% a year ago. It is followed by Firefox, which increased its share slightly from 30.09% to 31.5% and Google Chrome, which grabbed 11.54% share, more than triple its September 2009 share, according to market watcher StatCounter."
IE has 100% marketshare... and Windows7 has 100% marketshare too... and WindowsXP has 100% marketshare too... just ask Microsoft and get your numbers from the source!
Yeah, if you took a sample with a higher percentage of Linux users the IE browser share would probably be more like 75%.
Erm... wait what?

There is no holy browser (except lynx)
Surely thou meanest blessed telnet to port 80? We have learned to respect the ways of wget and curl, but the heretical lynx shall be spoken of with curses forever!
