OS X Lion has practically caught up Snow Leopard in terms of user numbers over the month of March, MacGeneration reports. These figures from Net Applications show that while Snow Leopard still has the majority of users with 42.64%, Lion is catching up fast with 39.6%.
If things keep going at the same pace, Lion should overtake Snow Leopard by the end of the spring, just in time for the release of Mountain Lion in the summer. It’s also worth noting that Leopard still has a 13.5% user base, so it hasn’t been completely dropped.
