Since FireFox is still in Preview release...
They will not be bundled anytime soon but also, that 'not yet 10%' figure is questionable.

Mozilla gets their data from number of downloads compared to number of boxes surfing. According to ZDnet, 19% of browsers coming to their site are Mozilla.

People like me download one time then install aon all my systems. I will not send 60+ computers to the net simultaneaously to get the latest 4MB download. Okay, it's not 20MB like Netscape so it won't take long for any single downoad but it will take forever with 60+ even if it was only 2MB.

So Mozilla scores another download from me but ZDnet scores 60+ new systems using FireFox.

Also, ZDNets stats may be skewed as people who go to ZDnet may also be people who are most likely to move off of IE. So not yet 10% may be a low figure but 19% may be a high figure.

The MSN figure will favour IE. The AOL figure will favor Gecko/Netscape/Mozilla (although not FireFox).

We should check the Google stats perhaps? I don't know. Where is an actual neutral site with heavy traffic of a diverse populace?
