What a hoot reading the different ways a ‘study’ ‘finding’ that browser choice has been correlated to IQ has been (cough) ‘reported’…
People with higher IQ are shunning Internet Explorer: study
IE Users Have Lower IQ Than Users of Other Web Browsers [STUDY]
Internet Explorer Users are More Stupid Than Others: Study
Internet Explorer Users Are Dumber Than Chrome and Opera Users
It’s Official: IE Users Have a Lower IQ! » SitePoint

4 Aug, (Not a) Surprise! The ‘study’ was a hoax, complete with bogus research firm, according to the sucked-in BBC …

It later emerged that the company’s website was only recently set up and staff images were copied from a legitimate business in Paris.
Someone’s got a sense of humour!
