Here is part of a line from my web logs:

(Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10_5_5; en-us) AppleWebKit/525.18  
(KHTML, like Gecko) Version/3.1.2 Safari/525.20.1"

I can confirm that under the browser report, Safari is detected but  
under OS report it only shows Macintosh whereas the information is  
there in the log to show that it was an Intel based Mac (as opposed to  
the older Power PC chip set from Motorola) but of more relevance is  
that it was the latest version of OS X namely 10.5.5 that was in use.

So it seems Analog can report on this for Windows but not for Mac.
