Just for the reccord, I like IE on win32* a lot more then I like any of the other competing browsers. It's faster and generally easier to use. This is of course, my opinion, and your opinion of exactly what you like in a browser is almost definately different. But thats no reason to pointlessly bash one of the few decent products that microsoft produces. *Assuming I can use a handy module named 'proximitron' or the equivalent.	[reply]

You mean neither the fact that its CSS support is blatantly broken nor that its ActiveX support is a gigantic security hole justify any "bashing"? How many critical security patches for IE have there been within the last 6 months, again? For the record, the most usable browser so far in my opinion is Opera. Unfortunately, v6 doesn't render well and handles Javascript pitifully at best (and sometimes you need JS..). Mozilla on the other hand renders extremly well (by which I mean standards compliant). Besides a few edge cases, I've yet to throw any CSS at it that it couldn't handle. So that is what I've settled on for now. Once Opera v7 is out for Linux I'm giving it another shot. Makeshifts last the longest.	[reply]
