Let me preface this with saying I long for the day IE6 is completely irrelevant.

The fact is, when doing client work I have a responsibility to design the site in a way that when their customer visits they get the information they need. If the website is broken, for whatever reason, that looks badly on my client and on me.

When I do a site I code and design for modern browsers. However, I make sure even IE6 users can get the information they need or order products or whatever the case is with the website.

True, the IE6 users are small in number, however in some cases they can make up an older or important demographic to a client.
