Windows 2000 doesn't appear to have any significant market share.

Who uses IE6 on XP? Pirated copies of XP? That's bizarre.

How about half the population of China? http://gs.statcounter.com/#browser_version-CN-monthly-200909... Plus folks at many organizations with conservative IT policies.

I know I had to do some voodoo to make a website we setup work right for a client because all of their internal windows computers were still running IE6

Much higher that win98. I wonder if my 12yr old daughters machine is the last win98 machine on the internet?

Chrome is hardly stable on pages with a ton of flash content ...

Opera runs well on Windows 2000

Boxes still on Win2k won't have much memory, and Chrome is really memory-hungry, so it isn't going to help.
