Why is someone still using W2K, you ask? Cost and speed, plain and simple. W2K runs SO MUCH FASTER than XP or Vista (given the same system specs), has a much smaller memory footprint, and is rock-solid stable. For example, for me to upgrade to Vista, I would need a new, comparable system ($2000+) plus upgrades on several, expensive applications ($3000+). AND, there's the "fixing and tweaking" period -- which robs time and productivity for weeks on end (or more). Not gonna happen, not for a long time. So, for some people, there is no positive incentive to upgrade their system simply because IE6 is no longer supported. Good thing FireFox 3+ supports W2K.

Thanks, Mohammed we shouldn’t support IE6 not only because it’s an idiot browser but Microsoft stopped supporting it which means a lot of security issues are facing users when they use it!

Interestingly, it had no noticeable effect on revenue, just a complaint here & there. @Jeff: we get 3 million page views a month & ditched IE6 support a few months back – for IE6 users, our entire site appears in black & white except for a red “upgrade your browser bar” at the top.
