But the windows people, that is a different bunch of idiots, and I for one am sick to death of having to design each and every site to cope with the most obsolete version of IE. IE is already bad enough to code for, but the different version (Extreme cases 4) are a nightmare, not only do they not support any kind of standard, among the versions there is no standard. That is not even beginning to talk of the horror that is the mobile versions of IE.
Then why do you do? Web developers haven't give a shit for Linux users all these years, so why would you care few old browser users? Are they more valuable than other than IE users?
While pricing how good the IE7 is, you "web developers" are
actually the culprit of whole incompatibility mess in the web.

...tells a lot. Most of you have not heard about standards
nor validation, and if have, you don't validate.
You just don't care. It tells more about your professional
skills and character that would be required from a developer,
character that you don't have.
There is one set of standards, you do it like says and it's
terminal software's problem if it doesn't work. It's its manufacturer's problem. If you would
do like that, there wouldn't be incompatible browsers and
nobody would be using such.
I'm not surprised that you've messed the web completely. I'm surprised how this could happen,
in Web and IT, when it doesn't happen in other areas of engineering. (telecommunication, electrical engineering, car industry etc)

And what have prevented doing so since the Graham Bell invented voice communication without AI killing robots?
Today you get 5.1 digital sound everywhere in globe with DoD's budget.
Well.... it had its own desktop.
I guess it's still there, they just snipped the wires coming to your dashboard.
