when does a browser count?

while in a meeting today a discussion invariably took place the subject of which i am sure your familiar, at least if you are “in the business”.

Which browsers do we support and for what platform?

The usual suspects were MSIE 6 & 7, Firefox for Win & Mac.

This seems fine to me, although a little more effort goes into supporting Firefox for mac and therefore a little more time and finally a little more money is spent.

I’m not convinced 1.7% of the user base is sufficient reason enough to warrant the extra work required. I throw the question out to you. what are your thoughts about browser / platform support. what numbers and percentages motivate your companies development strategies?
