Enjoy more of the real world
"Point taken, but why mention that statistic in the first place if it
isn't representative of anything else out there in the real world?"

CNet's site isn't in the real world?

Given news.com is a technical site, it might be technical users
are more likely to prefer alternatives to IE and this usage might
be reflected on other technical sites.

It gives weight to the argument bundling damages competition
(why isn't the non-techincal usage of alternate browsers higher
given technical users avoid it?).

Whilst I can see why the MS fanboys are upset the line is one of
the better pieces of information on ZDNet today. Given the
recent latest zero day exploit, in a long line of exploits, I'm
surprised not all technical users have made the change;-)
