We don't want to annoy users, but subtle
nudges to a better experience
can be good. :)
(It'd be good to avoid the "This site best viewed in Netscape Gold" sort
of browser fanboy wars of the '90s, though. ;)
I know we can't do it, but I do have subtle dreams of "Sorry, this
video won't display in Safari because Apple refuse to. If you don't
want to use a better browser, here's Apple's phone number."

I'm not sure I'd call that "subtle"... "Effective" maybe :D
A little "Did you know Firefox 3.5 can show this to you better, get it
here" notice would be great. Take care to avoid browser fanboy wars yes,
but it's be nice to nudge gently. Probably text-only and dismissible
would be fine.
