I would greatly appreciate any insight you can share from your experience.

Phil,

I'll let the wiser people on this list comment on the technical aspects of your 
question.

My experience is that it is better to make a good product for a smaller market 
rather than a marginal product for a larger market.
If your product is good, word will spread. And your market will grow.
If your product is compromised, for whatever reason (even if it is not directly 
related to your product - like the browser on which it is used), that word will 
also spread. And you will be fighting that reputation with every new sale you 
attempt.

Well said.

A related question: if your potential buyers will not invest in a contemporary 
browser (which offers them many benefits for a minimal cost), why do you 
believe they will spend their money on your training system?

Uhh, Paul... it's the government.  ;-)

Their computer and internet experience tends to be a direct outcome of decisions by their IT people. For example, the computers in some (many?) agencies run virtualized systems, and don't allow anything to be installed on a computer by its user. Hence web delivery of training in my case.
