I recently did a site makeover for a pretty big gamer site. This
included spending around an extra month getting the damned thing
pixel-perfect on Mac/IE (and barring a few pixels, I pretty much
achieved it).

Visiting browsers were about 4% Mac platform, of which almost everything
was Safari. There was a measurable but tiny traffic of non-Safari
browsers. The only Mac/IE I saw though was from our own test machines.

IMHO, people who don't use Macs (i.e. my boss) use Mac/IE because it's
what they're used to and are expecting to find. People who do use Macs
have long moved from IE to Safari.
