Safari's market share is notably lower than the big 3, even if they included that then why not Opera? Why not Android's browser? Why not GNU Icecat? You could play this game all day.

It's not just that Safari is excluded, but that it was only tested on Windows 7 32-bit. Why not test on at least Windows 7 64-bit? Aren't most of Intel's chips 64-bit by now (Core 2 Duo, Core iX)?

And why not Android or iOS? A quick search shows that Microsoft sold 400 million licenses of Windows 7 (32 and 64-bit combined). Apple has sold 250 million iOS devices and there have been 200 million Android devices sold.
