    If I had to use IE v1-5, I'd switch too! IE was terrible at that time.

    Ah - and I'd like to add another comment about the one suposed feature FF has that IE doesn't - tabbed browsing.

    PLEASE. This is so stupid. It's about having a browser with a multidocument interface rather than a single document interface - and SDI is far better. Forget tabs - just open another browser.

    Geez, I am so sick of blogs being considered news. Who cares about some guy's blog? Actually, I am sick of blogs in general. So this guy worked on the UI for IE; I really don't give a crap.
