    Interesting that IE6 usage didn't actually decrease, IE5 usage did... I think that the IE6 users that move to mozilla are replaced by IE5 users that upgrade to IE6, thus keeping a balance. Also, how accurate can those stats be?

    a webdesigners website is hardly a representative of the world at large

    don't get me wrong any gain is good news but until someone like google's zeitgeist or thecounter.com confirms it (ie someone who has a huge userbase across all countries and languages)
    this 14% stat is pretty meaningless
    lets not go down the MS road of skewing stats in our favour, just keep doing what you are doing and good things will happen to those who wait (politics is exempt;)
