>I don't need to 'cite' what I can see with my own eyes from the stats of my payment services provider.

Your original statement was broad and general, not qualified. Your anecdotal evidence is not sufficient to support this claim.

In the context of the discussion about supporting IE 8,9 and 10 and using your terminology flexbox (which IE 8-10 doesn't support) seems to be "all kinds of sexy stuff" and "not keeping things simple". Right, got it.

Suit yourself. One thing I do know: if you are serious about commerce you can't afford to lose customers that you've spent a lot of money to acquire it tends to wreak havoc with your spreadsheets.

If I was running a train ticketing system or an old ATM, I guess I'd keep supporting OS/2.

If the cost of supporting old browsers was more than the profit you make, then that spreadsheet will show a different story.
