Tony, if that's the case, then I stand corrected. <G> That is a pretty big
sample. But the browser stats still look skewed to me based on what I've
seen from other sites (sorry, I don't have your message anymore, I just
remember that IE 4 percentage was very high)

Exactly. So that data would be biased towards the latest browsers, which I
would guess would be more likely to be on new computers with better
hardware.

And this is why I do not enter my email address into my browser :>)
