Firefox 2 and Internet Explorer 7 Adoption Rates

What a weird week. IE7 moved up just a hair (man they're taking their time getting that thing out the door) and Firefox #2 slipped backwards by a few percentage points. The Firefox thing is less of a concern for me, for obvious reasons. I'm absolutely chomping at the bit to be rid of IE6 and while I knew that the adoption rate would be slower than I'd like, the glacial pace of Microsoft's roll out is killing me. Hurry it up already :)
