Providing support for an out of date insecure browser is incredibly daft. If all web devs dropped support it would force companies to look at other more secure options. All the other major browsers work on XP if you can't upgrade just yet. Microsoft finally dropping support for XP is a blessing in disguise. IE still needs hacks, even for it's most up to date versions. I use SSE in a number of applications yet still include a fallback for IE as it doesn't support it yet.

This is a normal post In a similar vein
Up until a couple of years ago I used to have to support a Digital VAX cluster dating from 1991. Spare parts were impossible to find, but we had to keep it going as it was what we used to support our clients who still had them at the very core of their operations.

The clients were still running them as replacing them would have meant a complete rewrite of their entire business management software - which to ensure it kept them within their regulatory framework would probably have taken five years and cost tens of millions. They were prisoners of this system because they couldn't afford not to run it and couldn't afford to replace it. We made a decent amount of money supporting it.

I stopped having to support this system not because they replaced it, but because I moved jobs. To the best of my knowledge they're still on it.

This is a normal post jeeze that sounds like a nightmare for them
But as you say, it still needs to be supported and they will pay for it. Banking systems are pretty dated too, even when there is the money to update they don't because of all the extra hassle of retraining staff etc.

This is a normal post I think you and Firkin are talking about something different here.
Internal systems, intranets, and applications are a different ball game. You're developing a app for a particular environment which is fine and I have no problem with.What I'm talking with regard to the consumer web which should be dropping support for older insecure browsers.

This is a normal post The key word was enterprises
yeah for joe blogs you can chose any browser you want, but if you want your site to db viewed by the financial industry for example, you can't.

I have only built (and still develop) 1 corporate internal system, and I convinced them to move away from IE. But they are small, only 20 odd staff. Most of my work is consumer facing and I always tell my clients I'm not going to support old browsers beyond a html5 shiv and they are happy with that. Most of the breakage is superficial display issues anyway. Some functional problems though, like javascript date handling in LT IE9

This is a normal post oh i get you on that side of things
Some things are just impossible in old IE. i thinks why Google made Chrome a click once install from IE. The new IE in the next release of Windows 8 apparently has webgl and loads more new stuff! Apparently...

This is a normal post You can't divorce enterprise and consumer browsers
They're the same thing. You probably wouldn't be surprised how much web browsing happens from people's work machines.

This is a normal post They shouldn't be browsing at work anyway =D
I think on average I see around 1-5% of visitors from IE6, 7 & 8 browsers on my sites, an insignificant amount.

Lines, it would be like taking a giant shit on the internet.

Although I would love to see the obamacare source. I think MS keep windows closed to prevent fragmentation, imagine, 50+ distributions of windows.

This is a normal post They could have got rid of it years ago
If the shower of shits in charge of it had ensured that there were proper drivers available for all the printers and scanners etc. that work fine under XP but not on later versions then I'm sure many more people would have ditched it.

As it is, I keep an old XP laptop so I can do the rare bits of scanning that I need to do.

This is a normal post Used xp with all updates turned off for two years, an end to a constant barrage of 'support' is perhaps not a bad thing
My win7 has so much junk added I wouldn't know where to begin to clean it up - it's not about my user experience, it's all about 'MUST SUIT NEEDS FOR SMALL COMPANIES AND EVERY OTHER POTENTIAL USER IN THE KNOWN UNIVERSE' as if stuff I use for office, photoshop, browsing b3ta and a few beta test games needs shared workspace and all the other little extras. I can turn stuff off but it's still there, often so damned ready it's loaded in processes.

This is a normal post IMPORTANT SECURITY UPDATE
and, incidentally, we added some more bloated framework instead of adjusting the old, your PC can handle it anyway and I'm sure you don't mind having this wrapped around your system like a wet blanket

He has the DBZ animation down perfectly, but have a look at his flickbooks of ronaldinho and messi to see what he can do with non-animated source material.
