The reality is that finding workarounds for IE is a huge cost in time and money and the sooner we don't have to worry about it the better for all.
Encouraging people to keep their old browsers by coding for them and not giving them any incentive to upgrade is costing huge amounts of money and holding back what could be achieved in web design.

I'm glad someone else already said this... I was catching up on the nights posts, and trying to figure a way to word up my response. This will do nicely

I have a hard enough time learning to code, trying to code by W3C "Standards", and coming up with a nice looking site. It's not a matter of laziness, it's a matter of I've got better things to be doing that actually pay, spending time on IE6 compatibility is not only wasting brain cells (since when it is finally gone for good, it does no good to know how) but it's wasting time earning potentials as well... Now if the clients want to insist on IE6 compatibility, and are willing to pay for the extra time that will take, that's fine (especially if it's a matter of deal or no-deal) but I have yet to find any of those.
I think the real "laziness" is those who are able, but just haven't upgraded their browsers yet. I know, there are people in third world countries that don't have the great computers we do, or the blazing fast internet wired into their toilets like we do. Am I really targeting them as a potential customer?
Even with today's economy being what it is, I don't think 10% is a significant enough portion of a market-base to act upon.
