I'm not arguing with this point, but wondering how to reach these people.
AWStats shows 1.6% of our hits in May came from Netscape. Of these, 12,000
hits were from Netscape 4 or--gulp--lower?!
In our case, we have a lot of older users and retired users who are to put
it delicately not cutting-edge techy. It would be nice to gently bring them
forward. They may only have a high tolerance for funky-looking because they
haven't seen the Web through a modern browser.
Firefox had 5.3% of the action in May--not bad at all. Though I was
surprised to see many PDA browsers listed but not Blazer or anything
claiming to be Palm-based.
