Default Microsoft's opinion of IE - 03-27-2006 , 04:53 PM






Thought this might be amusing to some - it's a link to an actual
stylesheet. Take a look at the first two classes defined, and then take
another look at the URL...

Har har! I wonder if those things are fixed in IE7, or if the
Microsoft Connect developers even care?

*LOL*

I thought the general opinion and consensus was that everything non-IE should
be eradicated [1], so why IE 'hacks'?

When I first saw the subject line I thought you were referring to:

"Microsoft says Windows users should "take care not to
visit unfamiliar or untrusted Web sites that could potentially
host the malicious code"

It _is_ amusing! And brings back fond memories, of the quickly (but not
quickly enough) pulled ad banner MS used a while ago promoting
Frontpage's code cleanup quality... For those of you who did not see it,
or forgot about it, care to see it again, have a looksee over here:

MAybe it wasn't a glitch after all ? *GRIN*

Just made my day, Tony! Cheers!
Sh.

Microsoftoft is highly Balkanised. Some of the worst criticisms I've heard of
Microsoftoft products (chiefly IE, ASP.NET and Word) have come from Microsoftoft
developers in other divisions.
