CSS 2.1 makes layout easy ans IE8 passes ACID2.

I have some javascript that detects the browser and warns users of IE <8 that they need to upgrade.

Maybe bleeding edge for commercial sites, but helping the user upgrade is going them a favour.

Browser sniffing is a losing battle.

agreed - complete and utter waste of time

If someone wants to mask their browser, so be it.

They will see a false warning, or miss a useful one.

Standards exist for a reason. Web designers have wasted eons of man years accommodating Microsoft's incompetence. Finally getting things right takes some people to start, and it is those of us without a commercial need to be friendly to IE <8.
