Basically “Business and education” generally use IE, along with people who just “buy a computer” – the same people who believe you need a £600 machine because you want to email big files and multitask – and never know any better (the sooner IE is de-bundled from windows, the better)

I tend to find that on any of my “general” sites – the sort of thing that I’d consider an older person would look for – a real ale guide, for example – IE is dominant. As soon as you bring younger people into the equation, the firefox takeup rockets.

I’d love to do a survey of a University and check browsing habits and I’d be willing to bet there’s some figures among under 30′s (and even moreso among under 25′s) that will scare the bejeezus out of Microsoft. I ran a graphics forum, primarily based around an MMORPG, a year or two back now – mostly 14-25 year olds, and 90% of my traffic was firefox.

Phil,
I hear you.
