Firefox the browser of choice for 1 in 10

FirefoxIt's getting difficult to keep track of all the different companies claiming to have the difinitive score in the browser wars. One called NetApplications is saying that after a full one-point gain in since November, Firefox is now the browser of choice for 9.6% of web surfers. NetApplications also says that it's "very close to hitting a critical mass of 10 percent, which could mean a more rapid adoption rate." I'm a little skeptical about 10% being that magic "critical mass" number, but it is a number that pointy-haired execs can't ignore when their engineers tell them they need to be developing with standards in mind.
