After first day, OS X Mavericks on 1 in 18 Macs

In its first 24 hours, Apple's OS X Mavericks tripled the uptake of its predecessor Mountain Lion, ending the day on about 1 out of every 18 Macs, an online advertising network said Thursday.Chitika, which regularly mines its ad impression data for trends in operating system usage, said that Mavericks accounted for 5.5% o OS X in the U.S. and Canada by the end of its first day.In its first 24 hours, 2012's Mountain Lion reached a share of 1.6%. t took that edition four days to match the first-day uptake of Mavericks, Chitika said in a blog post Thursday.Chitika made a good bet by crediting Mavericks' zero price for the quick uptake.
