Do you plan to publicly document the existing Word and Excel binary formats so anyone can read / write to them? (Without having to pay royalties, that is). And more important, why don't you people commit yourselves to adopt the OASIS OpenDocument format instead of your proprietary (even if open) ones? A clear, straight answer (not "because my boss said so") would be appreciated.
Though you won't see (most of) these until Beta 2, we have already fixed the following bugs from PositionIsEverything and Quirksmode:
* Peekaboo bug
* Guillotine bug
* Duplicate Character bug
* Border Chaos
* No Scroll bug
* 3 Pixel Text Jog
* Magic Creeping Text bug
* Bottom Margin bug on Hover
* Losing the ability to highlight text under the top border
* IE/Win Line-height bug
* Double Float Margin Bug
* Quirky Percentages in IE
* Duplicate indent
* Moving viewport scrollbar outside HTML borders
* 1 px border style
* Disappearing List-background
* Fix width:auto
In addition we've added support for the following
* HTML 4.01 ABBR tag
* Improved (though not yet perfect) fallback
* CSS 2.1 Selector support (child, adjacent, attribute, first-child etc.)
* CSS 2.1 Fixed positioning
* Alpha channel in PNG images
* Fix:hover on all elements
* Background-attachment: fixed on all elements not just body

So I think that sums most of 'em.
And look, if IE6 fails miserably the ACID2 test, i'm really hoping we'll see a yellow blurb at least in IE7 (right now it's like a red wall with some pieces of slaughtered yellow-face in there).
In firefox we don't see the face, but at least we can see a nice yellow thing with wierd not-intended-to-be sunglasses on... kinda.
So I'm quite curious how the ACID2 will render in IE7...
Maybe it's the slashdot bias (i bet lot of ppl coming from slashdot are googling it), but the only sponsored ad I see is "WebDesign By Skilled Team Very professional and affordable".
Sadly, Microsoft will issue a new version of Genuine Advantage that disables the hack and make you use the new version before you can use Microsoft update

Well, let me make it easy for you! Here's a hood ... it can protect you in a snowstorm, or you can use it to rob a bank. Ban hoods!
:-/
What if you use it when going to your local bank in New York during winter?
It already does! Just think of where your science skills would be without the inspiration of Star Trek?
Or Carl Sagan.
How about watching "Bowling for Columbine" and think about it for a little while?
And ironically, it's the most user-friendly piece of crap that has ever been made.
:-(
Linux is no piece of crap, but it's not user friendly
the average slashdotter wants to download music files (information wants to be free), while keeping his privacy from the RIAA.

Not that I've done it... *whistles innocently* It's just a wild guess

I guess that with a corporation, they'll be finally able to do DECENT tv commercials (not the funny ones that were on the web).
Just a thought.
"We want a better IE7!"
"We don't want an IE7!"
Make up your minds, will ya? Obviously, this guy hasn't read the IE7 blog. At least the IE7 development team are trying.
A bunch of guys eager to receive money from companies are ruling the country and can screw everything up.
Or something like that.

Hackers... revealing... information?
Oh no! Planet X has a security hole!!!

Yes, it DOES contain invalid code. CSS standards not only say what valid code is, but how browsers should fallback when they encounter INVALID code.
Actually, they mention this in the FAQ too.

With each fix and update they make, they'll create 10 new bugs and errors. Any one else noticed this pattern?
Yes, in Open Source.
OH... VULNERABILITIES you say. Nevermind.
Whereever you go, it would just repeat, "Mostly harmless."
Unless of course, you're in Redmond, where it would shout: "DANGER, WILL ROBINSON! DANGER!"
What, you expected another no like the other 9,999 posts in here? :P

Hey, at least I got to be original

If someone uses illegal activity using WiFi while in your cafe, you can put yourself into serious trouble.
And when they block archive.org, what will you do then?
:D No one will be able to block you then! Oh, wait...

Hey, this reminds me of the last revenge of the nerds movie, where the nerds unite on strike and spread chaos on the country.
Sadly, this day reminds me that you're only worth the amount of money you can produce.
Hmmmm...

IM is synchronous; e-mail is asynchronous.
:)
Ironically, I communicate better thru e-mail. I have this friend who keeps saying stuff like:
"And then (enter)
she showed up like (enter)
if she had been scared (enter)
and I was like (enter)
rofling (enter)
"
Needless to say, everytime she presses enter i hear a beep and her taskbar icon begins flashing. ARGH! Can't some people learn to express themselves!?
So this is why I love e-mail.

IM is for communication in real-time, email is for communication any time.
For everything else, there's MasterCard.
Oh, wait...
