Again, interesting, stuff, Dave.
Concerning your remark:
If I was Microsoft I'd be quite worried that the IT support pros,
influencers and developers have such a different make-up than the
mainstream.
I believe they are indeed concerned about this. AIUI they're a little
fed
up with the constant remarks on fora like this where we're broadly able
to
talk about the standards browsers and mean every browser except IE
for
which, everyone knows you need to put in workarounds. IE9 is going to
take
a big step towards changing that with support for SVG, XHTML and more.
As for when IT departments get around to changing over to it, who can
say?

For what it's worth, some of our non-techie sites (with much smaller
user numbers, as they're focused on the relatively tiny New Zealand
market) are showing a slightly rosier picture over the past month:
Advocacy website for cyclists (4544 visits):
IE: 41.57% (IE6-15.09% 7-37.96% 8-46.96%)
FF: 40.29%
CHROME: 9.09%
SAFARI: 7.68%
OPERA: 0.62%
IE6 = 6.27%
Sports clothing (28,337 visits):

FF: 24.87%
CHROME: 6.20%
SAFARI: 17.82%

For contrast, here're the stats for a tech company.

I just took a peek at our own stats for May 2010.
A very large set limited to UK online shoppers only.
And I couldn't agree less with the article.
I have a couple of large .au 'mum and dad' sites (ie, not techie) and
I
have similar results to your .uk figures:
Internet Explorer67.11% Firefox17.19% Safari
9.70% Chrome4.67%
with specific IE figures of
IE8.059.08% IE7.028.46% IE6.012.44%
ie IE 6 is at 8.3% overall - lower than your numbers, but still worth
testing for.
Interestingly, I have iphone/ipod numbers at 2.77% and rising fast - I
guess I better get those mobile versions up!
