Hacker News Reader

Little outdated but (http://www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_stats.asp)

Also, based on analytics from our sites:

Approx 86% of our visitors have javascript enabled

Approx 100% of our visitors have flash enabled

interesting sidenote: 0% of our visitors that user firefox convert.

w3schools stats are wrong because its obvious that the audience is more technically sophisticated, thus more probably they are using Fx and have JS disabled.

real numbers are 78-80% for IE(6 and 7), 14-16% for Firefox

and it depends on country too

I don't see a correlation between disabling JS and tech level personally. Perhaps people who think they are technically sophisticated disable JS...

i agree, that would be more precise way to say it
