Where do you cut-off your browser support?:



But
we recently had a client ask (tell) us to support IE7 as that's what
they use internally still and, according to their own stats, have a
significant user base on 7.


Of course if they use it internally, they are going to show a 
"significant user base on 7" - or are they talking about only 
external users and not counting their internal users?

Our basic policy where I work is for support of IE8 and up for IE. But
we recently had a client ask (tell) us to support IE7 as that's what
they use internally still and, according to their own stats, have a
significant user base on 7. I'm leaning towards "we still use it so
you have to support it" as the real reason, so there's this type of
situation in the mix as well.
