I would say that to use those statistic to prove that you need only code
for IE is dangerous, as there is a much higher showing, right across the
board, of existing NS browsers and Other browser users, on the web sites
that I control. And nothing stays the same for too long in tech anyway.
Remember different sources give different statistic on this, and the stats
are be based on different questions (ie don't believe to much what you read
from one source). Believe me, it'd make life a lot easier if there was only
one browser to code for.
