Opera Releases "Bork" Edition

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the something-in-the-meatballs dept.

David Arnesen writes "Two weeks ago it was revealed that Microsoft's MSN portal targeted Opera users, by purposely providing them with a broken page. As a reply to MSN's treatment of its users, Opera Software today released a very special Bork edition of its Opera 7 for Windows browser. The Bork edition behaves differently on one Web site: MSN. Users accessing the MSN site will see the page transformed into the language of the famous Swedish Chef from the Muppet Show: Bork, Bork, Bork! Here you can find the press release and download link!"

    This is totally offtopic but here it goes anyway.

    According to a paper released today 89 percent of all IT-companies in Sweden is in the red at this moment.

    Thats right, only 11 percent is ok.

    It's likely that the situation is similuar in the rest of the world.

    We are going to see a massive number of IT-companies going bankrupt this year.

    Just a tip to all you unemployed folks, I changed my resume to simply 'EMPLOY ME I AM GOD' and promptly got a job, albeit doing M$ work for some New Co., but it pays the bills and keeps me supplied in booze, new hardware and the cable connection up for my prizz0n. So, just a tizzy for all my slashdizzy nizzy.

    Don't knock MSN, if you've tried MSN 8 you already know it's going to pound this shit out of what's left of AOL.

  7. goatse.cx, and NOT goatse by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    please, please, please, stop calling it "goatse": the joke only works when it includes the "goatse.cx" because then you pronounce it "goatsex". That's the joke, ya gotta sti.cx with the joke.
