Depending on how accurate stat packages really are, here are some interesting numbers of browser usage on myRPHA.com (a fantasy based hockey simulation game). Not too be stereotypical but a large percentage of the users of this site would not be first in line for the next upgrade release or interested in what else is available opposed to IE that comes packaged with Windows.
The following percentages come from a relatively small audience with a monthly average of 6,000 Visits, 126,000 Pages, and 480,000 Hits.
