I assume you include all Mac users among the sophisticates who have more 
than a limited understanding of the Internet.

Adrian, nobody knows what the market share math will be next year or the 
year after. What if the audience you're not reaching rises to 20%? 30%? At 
some point, you're up for a rewrite. Following standards is insurance that 
your site will work on a wide range of browsers and the additional cost is 
trivial.
