I don't know if you saw it, but Apple had some figures during the WWDC Keynote today.

Anyone know where I could find the distribution of the Mac community

On the next update of my application I am thinking of limiting it to
version 10.3 and later.
Would this cut out a significant fraction of potential users, or would
it be a very small fraction?


I noticed in a recent article on Daring Fireball
http://daringfireball.net/ that less than 2% of Safari hits on that
site are using 10.2 or less. However I am not sure that is
representative of the total Mac community.

Any info on this would be appreciated,

It really depends on your audience. If your audience is technically
savvy, you shouldn't have much problem. If your target audience is home
users, it would be a good idea to keep supporting old versions as long
as possible.
