Interesting... they seem to be adopting a Firefox like simplicity in the interface as well.

Suffering from ads?

I thought it was fairly well-known that I support Firefox...

The point is, Firefox was doing what users want. Now IE is doing more of the same. That's a good thing.

I don't give a damn about the political bickering a lot of you get caught up in, all I care about is nice products.

Oh? Any chance I get to make valid and working sites without losing tracks of all the IE hacks? Right, didn't think so...

This has nothing to do with political bickering, this is about IE being an inferior product and IE 7 isn't going to change that.

I don't know what your problem is, IE 7 isn't even out and you've branded it inferior. Seems pretty political to me.

The devs have said publically they are improving CSS and PNG support in IE 7.

And I don't know why you have such a hard time creating websites, other people seem to do it fine.

So far they only said they will adress the float problems. Min/max-width? Min/max-height? Fixed positions for ALL elements, not just a background image in the body element? Maybe, just maybe the :hover pseudoselector for ALL element?

Nah, why should they bother? As long as people like you are happy...

Actually, you should care. Browsers like IE can do what you want them to do and also do what you don't want them to do (spyware, virus etc.).

I'm with Asher on this one. Ultimately there are far more interesting philosophies out there than the "evil" Microsoft and the messianic GPL. Why do I use Firefox?

More secure, faster rendering, tabbed browsing, RSS-support, clean interface, bookmarks toolbar, cookie control.

If another browser does that better, I'll use that... brand loyalty doesn't come into it and means you'll just end up using an inferior product.

But that is the whole point. IE is costing companies millions of dollars. For web designers it's a pain in the ass and who do you think is plonking down the money to make corporate sites IE compatible?

I wonder why mr. Microsoft has left this thread?

Tired of ads?

I've been in a conference call, supporting a big-name customer on Linux of all things...

If Firefox had IE's marketshare, it would also be costing companies millions of dollars. Opera, too.

All of them have numerous security vulnerabilities, and you just need one to screw things up.

Opera sucks (though they continue to make efforts to copy Firefox's simplicity) because the designers so obviously "don't get it" in terms of user interface design. Go figure, because most of the Opera users I know are web designers who seem to forget that Opera has some of the worst JavaScript support out of all browsers.

Web Browsers are made for the customer, not for the developer.
