It's August 2008, almost 2 years since Internet Explorer 7 came out.  So why on earth does IE6 still have almost the same market share? 

Browser Stats

Fri Feb 1 00:01:02 2008 - Sun Aug 31 23:58:00 2008   213.0 Days

1. MSIE 7.x  

15370300 (41%)

2. MSIE 6.x  

13493578 (36%)

3. FireFox  

6230544 (17%)

4. Safari  

1276526 (3%)

5. Opera x.x  

306845 (1%)

 

I was sure the world would be (nearly) free of IE6 a year ago, but adoption has slowed so much that it's only given 1% to IE7 in the last 7 months. 

Microsoft, you're not pushing hard enough -- get that fogey out of here ASAP!

 

And now back to futzing with transparent PNGs for IE6...
