Review of Mozilla's 2002

An anonymous reader writes "MozillaZine is currently featuring an article looking back at the last 12 months of the Mozilla project. It's amazing to see how far things have come in 2002. A year ago, there was no Mozilla 1.0, no Netscape 7, no Phoenix, no Chimera and no shipping AOL clients using Gecko (Mozilla's rendering engine). An interesting read."

Hello, michael is a worthless prick

He is also a whining, flamebaiting cunt.

Yet his mountainous stupidity somehow fits the editorial staff of Slashdot. All he needs to do is drink some mercury and whine constantly about spam and he'll be indistinguisable from CmdrTaco.

No, actually.

Most Mozilla users are Linux-zealot, MS-bashing teenagers that, at most, are working in the fast food industry. Most IE users are corporate workers that actually pull in a real paycheck.

Re:1.7 % Market Share

I'm going to have to disagree with you totally on this. First of all, take a site that relies on internet sales. Amazon.com. Do you honestly think that the sales they've made through Mozilla browsers (the 1.7% you talked about) is more money than the other 98.3%?! I mean, come on, you have to take a little logic into your equation.

There are still many people who use IE and are web savvy. I consider myself to be so, I don't use Mozilla because I like the way it renders the pages that I go to better. I'm sure there are some people who would agree with me.

And as for your last sentence, don't be ridiculous. If you are talking about your pride as a Mozilla user vs. making more money, then you're insane. Sure, you could say "Well, I'm proud to be a Mozilla user, and even if I'm in the minority, I'm COOL!" But Microsoft doesn't care! They HAVE the majority, and they're making money off of it! Those old grandmas that you speak of are helping Microsoft, because according to you, they don't know a thing about what they're doing.
