You could have a 90% probability of being right now, but as time goes on
and the average Joe/Josephine/Jomaphrodite become more internet-
familiar, both those percentages will go down. If I showed 100 people
how Opera resized graphics (particularly) as opposed to the standard
browser resizing methods, surely all of them would want the same
improved functionality. You can't stop progress even if you're the
manufacturer.
