It's not just an issue of displaying the .png, but how it affects other elements around it.

For example, IE 6 has a bug that prevents hyperlinks being clicked if they are laid over a transparent png background, requiring sophisticated scripting to swap a gif placeholder and use z-order stacking.

Folks with fancy backgrounds that didn't bother to do real-world cross-browser testing may have missed the fact that a major market segment couldn't click their site's links...
