The adoption rate of the new Apple operating system easily topped predecessor OS X Mountain Lion, which amounted for 1.6 percent during the same period in 2012.
The quick rise of OS X Mavericks might have been the result of the software's price, which is free. Apple's previous operating system, OS X Mountain Lion, was price at $19.99 when it launched in 2012.
OS X Mavericks' features include iBooks, a maps app, a streamlined Calender, updated Safari, iCloud Keychain, multi-display support, and Finder Tab and Tags for improved organization.
"Mavericks is an incredible release, which introduces significant new apps and features, while also improving the performance and battery life of your Mac," said Apple's Senior Vice President of Software Engineering Craig Federighi, in a statement. "We want every Mac user to experience the latest features, the most advanced technologies, and the strongest security. We believe the best way to do this is to begin a new era of personal computing software where OS upgrades are free."
