Everyone already realizes that. Now when you realize that we do realize then we can make some progress.

Once it becomes uncomfortable enough for enough people, or the right people, then IT departments will respond. That's how many departments work. Push change out as far as possible.

As I have already explained, there's an opportunity cost for supporting legacy. Companies like Apple are quick to drop legacy, and move forward. It works quite well for them. Google doesn't support less than IE8 for their apps (are they being lazy?). They claim to only support the last two browsers. It'll be interesting to see what happens when IE10 ships.

One thing that I think would be useful is to tell people that your site no longer "officially support" browser X before you actually stop supporting it.
