@MX3Design You *are* correct that you can't *tell* your clients what to do.

However, the figure is always different.

Some clients don't see a significant number of IE6 users to really justify
support or spending time accounting for the myriad of issues (PNG filtering,
rendering, etc. etc.)

It's a matter of metrics - if the client has a year's worth of data,
checking what percentage of their users are really IE6 users. The excuse of
"potentially, 25% of THE WORLD uses IE6" doesn't mean you should have to
deal with it because one day the world may visit your site and get a
downgraded experience. If you're talking small percentages, you have to
factor - is it worth the effort, or is it better to just tell people they
need a new option?
