Funeral Being Held Today For IE6

Posted by samzenpus on from the good-riddance dept.

An anonymous reader writes "More than 100 people, many of them dressed in black, are expected to gather around a coffin Thursday to say goodbye to an old friend. The deceased? Internet Explorer 6. The aging Web browser, survived by its descendants Internet Explorer 7 and Internet Explorer 8, is being eulogized at a tongue-in-cheek 'funeral' hosted by Aten Design Group, a design firm in Denver, Colorado."

    I wish I could mod you up for that

    It's ok... My Karma already goes to 11. I get 15 mod points every 3 to 5 days which is rather sad since half of my posts are trolls or add nothing of value to this site...
