That's quite high. What's your firefox user percentage as a way to cross reference (an informal test for geekiness)?

  MSIE: 78.10%
  Firefox: 16.92%
  Safari: 3.84%
  Opera: 0.55%

Now I think about it, although type-ins is convenient marketing/analytics speak - and it's the label for that field in the report - it's a bit misleading as the total would include bookmarks.

That's good news then, as that's a very non-geeky audience.
