Firefox crosses 200 million downloads
August 1st, 2006
Firefox hits 200 million downloads. Great stuff!
However, there is a certain level of word play at work, check this out:
"We know that this number doesn't represent actual users because this number includes both Firefox 1.0 and Firefox 1.5 (soon Firefox 2,) because not every one completes every download, and because not every download results in a new Firefox user.
That being said, 200 million people seeking Firefox is a huge accomplishment and we're right to celebrate our role in driving that number."
Sorry, but 200 million downloads does not equal 200 million people seeking Firefox. I have a number of PCs that I work on, each has Firefox, and for each one I've downloaded the latest security update as soon as it became available. I assume a lot of other people did the same.
200 million downloads is just that - 200 million downloads.
