Ahh, but I can. Why do you use Firefox? Because it is, without
question, the best web development environment in the world. And that
makes you love Firefox. And that makes you recommend firefox to
others, like your Mum. And that increases Firefox's market share,
which makes the world better for everybody :) Your Mum likely wouldn't
be using Firefox were it not for its developer-friendliness.

Totally agreed that only a small percentage are developers; but IMO
they're a *very* important percentage. To quote one S. Ballmer,
"Developers developers developers developers [...] developers".
