Ryan,

Be sure you are looking at the browser stats in the wider context of the
site's purpose and audience reach.  For my personal sites, I abandoned IE6 a
year ago, but I get very few visitors.  20% of visitors to my personal site
only account for a couple a day.

On sites I build for clients who can get tens of thousands of visitors a
day, 20% can be a very large number.  Don't loose sight of the total number
of users you may be eliminating from access to the site, many of whom may
have no choice in the matter.

Even for those larger sites, though, I am sure to be clear what kind of IE6
support we are talking about.  I while strive to build sites that are usable
for anyone at all, using any browser (within reason), things will not be as
pretty or interactive on older browsers.  In my opinion, that's a fair trade
when budget demands that concessions be made.  And it always does.

Tim
