I'm surprised you didn't just go with IE9 as the cutoff? Why?

  I was saddled with supporting IE8 for a while because our biggest customer (of one of our products) was using it. They made up ~4% of traffic before they finally moved to Win7+IE11. Money talks.

    You're lucky. One of our largest corporate customers upgraded to Win 7 and then DOWNGRADED to IE 8.

      I wonder how many of them will still be on IE8 by the time Win7 ends support in 2020.

  Windows XP only runs IE8.

    and Chrome, Safari, Firefox and Opera.

      Windows Safari was dropped a while ago. Safari is Mac OS X only now.

      Chrome is only supported for another year.

        XP support ends in April, with extended security support ending in 2015, but you already knew that.

      But for how long? Google is a bit scary lately, with removing experimental region support because 2014 is the "make mobile fast" year. Also they killed Chrome Frame. I really wonder how long they will support XP. I don't think a company which wants to stick to XP is well served by migrating to Chrome! (edit: Not that sticking to XP would make sense anyway...)

  That's in 6 months when they need some PR again.
