Apple sales data, Q1 2011
For nearly 10 years, we kept a track of Apple sales data (based on official summary data along other sources), both for our own enlightenment and for our customers. These numbers helped greatly to decide which system release to support (or not), and when it was appropriate to drop an old system release.
We will update that post with some comments in a near future.
