Yeah, I know that... the problem is often though that their customers
"just want this stuff to work now, instantly, as cheap as possible, and
I don't give a damn about browser xyz which I don't think anybody uses
at all!".

It's even worse.
On the left half of the page, it's saying:
"You're using Internet Explorer 4 on Macintosh [with crappy German
Grammar, I might add]. In this browser-platform combination, there is a
lot of errorous [sp?] presentation.
Install the newest browser update."
Next of that is the logo of IE 5.0 (I thought I were using 4.0 ;-) ).
On the right side, we have the Netscape image. The text beneath that says:
"You're way ahead of your time [!!!]. Netscape 6 is not capable of
displaying this page [now whose fault might that be?]
Please install an older browser version [wtf, DOWNgrade a software
because the newer one does less?]."
