Jakob Nielsen's Alertbox for April 18, 1999 is titled, "Stuck with Old
Browsers Until 2003":

The highlight of the article is the chart which shows the percentage of
Netscape users using each release of Navigator over time. Each release is a
triangle, peaking, then gradually sloping off as users adopt newer releases.
For each release, the triangles keep getting wider...

Nielsen also just updated his "Top 10 Mistakes of Web Site Design", in this
piece:

Interestingly, he doesn't consider frames to be such the bogeyman anymore...
