I use IE6 all the time at work, because we develop and support a webapp of which a large chunk is (a) IE-only, and (b) used by banks, which tend to be both measured and conservative in their upgrade habits.
For personal use, I tend to use Firefox / Opera / Safari, in about that order of frequency.
I wholeheartedly endorse your abandonment of IE6 support. Admittedly, in its day, it let you do things that no other browser could accomplish in *any* way, and MS commanded such a huge share of the browser market that you could (and many sites unfortunately did) develop for it alone. But for some time now, there have been better ways.
(Gads. I remember when the v4 browsers were the hot shit, and dropping IE3 support was controversial. How time flies.)
