    Let's hope for the day they can add "Firefox usage overtakes IE usage" to that page. Although it may not be perfect, Firefox (pheonix, firebird etc) has been revolutionary - and I believe it has generally increase people's awareness about the web.

    Well done to all the developers involved in the developement. Keep up the good work.

    I'd be more interested in looking at a brief history of Internet Explorer, for the same reasons that they teach kids history in school. (to prevent it from repeating).

    I know you are trying to be funny, but only a fool feels that his own history is not worth examining. (Hint: Mozilla has made mistakes in its own past that we should try and avoid repeating in the future.)
