I maintain / have access to the logs of about 15 sites. The commercial and
financial ones all have MSIE above 92% and holding. The purely financial
ones are 95%+.

The one pure art site (photography) has MSIE at 65%, and an awful lot of
unknowns. Mac O/S is about 25%.

IE will remains strong until tech departments replace IE with Opera or
Firefox. The sad thing is I  inadvertently help IE remain strong. I use IE a
lot because I need to know how IE renders my client's sites.  I love using
Opera but I need to know how they view the web. The end result is my usage
helps pad IE's numbers.

Apache puts out a lot of security patches. Those don't get as much
press as IIS. I might be hard to say whether Apache or IIS gets more
patches. My gut feel is that Apache makes patches available faster
than Microsoft does for IIS but, again, no hard evidence on my part...
