Also, certain versions of IE6 have major issues with gzip-ed content (can't remember whether it's all gzip-ed content or just JS).

Gzipped HTML pages work fine in IE6. Some older IE6 installations without all available patches installed can have problems with gzipped .js files (and CSS files too, if I remember correctly).

On our site, we use conditional comments so that IE6 will request a not-gzipped, but minimally packed (no comments, no whitespace, similar to jsmin) version of jQuery (about 34KB) while all others, including IE7, get the gzipped 10KB version of jQuery.
