Once or twice, I've offered the client the option -- "Do you want me to
take X amount of hours trying to get the functioning website to work on
this arcane browser that is used by people with machines that are 5+
years old?"
I think anyone still using IE Mac on an old Mac OS machine probably
would not be able to shop online or view many websites already.
Sometimes, just sometimes, the lowest common denominator is just a
smidge too low.
