This discussion is also ongoing on Chi-Web -- ie, what browsers are folks using.
I personally detest seeing an "optimized for ..." tag on a site -- because I
immediately think it contains either proprietary tags or *something* that I'm going to
dislike.
This is an *open* medium!
Here is an interesting stat:
Zone Research - Browsers used a work Oct 1998
"The Web Browser Study is a periodic study conducted by Zona Research that tracks
browsers used in a corporate environment. For each study, approximately 150 corporate
IT professionals are selected. Responses are gathered via the IntelliQuest Technology
Panel."
Summary:
Netscape 3, 4, & 4.5 59%
Internet Explorer 3 & 4 41%
Breakout:
Netscape Communicator 4 29%
Netscape Navigator 4 21%
Netscape Navigator 3 9%
Netscape 2 1%
Internet Explorer 4 32%
Internet Explorer 3 8%
