Of course I was. This is the Adium-devl list, after all, and we were  
talking about Adium. Why would we be talking about general 10.3 usage?

My opinion is that the only numbers that matter are the numbers for  
our users. That's great that Omni has pretty much eradicated 10.3  
usage, but how many of their products are 10.3 compatible? How many  
include 10.4-only features? What's the support situation like? Are  
10.3 still supported (via email or phone) by Omni? These are  
important questions to ask, and you can't just blindly spout "95%!!"  
without some sort of context for those statistics.

This is a much more accurate method. Jeff, if you're listening, can  
we get this information out of the crash reporter somehow?
