The swing from a typical weekday to a Saturday or Sunday amounted to about a 20% drop-off in usage.  For funnelcake users, we\u2019ve seen that most of the Fx weekend usage decline in driven by XP users.  However, this is explained by the fact that they represent the greatest percent of total users by OS; on a percentage basis, XP users show about a 20% weekend decline.  Of the three biggest OS cohorts, Mac users display the greatest weekend drop-off on a percentage basis \u2013 about 25%.<\/p>\n<p>And Vista users of Fx?<\/p>\n<p>Their Fx usage decline on weekends amounts to a tiny 8%.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, when we look across all Fx users (not just funnelcake users), the numbers are fairly similar.
