Re: Browser stats

Scott,

I don't think those numbers are for the general internet.  A bit lower
on the page it says:

"W3Schools is a website for people with an interest for web
technologies. These people are more interested in using alternative
browsers than the average user."

That seems to indicate the 41% Firefox statistic is only for the
W3Schools site.

Hi David,

I assume your stats are just the (more conservative) Midrange.com crowd.

  Here's a site that lists the stats in general around the Internet:
http://www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_stats.asp

According to those stats, IE is about 54%, Firefox around 41%.

70% of the visitors to the midrange.com list archives are using IE.  26%
are using Firefox, and 1% are using Opera.  The remaining use Safari,
Konqueror, and others.
