I dislike the fact that there are other people using the nickname "InvisibleSoul" online. I, too, have used this single nickname for ten years or more... back in the days of BBS'. There used to only be me... now there are so many others that use the name, much to my chagrin.
There's nothing fanboyish about it... I just like IE more than FireFox. I find FireFox to be much slower than IE, and FireFox's main selling point seems to be tabbed browsing, which I don't make use of either - I've gotten very adept at just opening up many windows, and actually prefer that to using tabs.
In fact, I tried IE7 Beta and didn't like that either.
In the end, I like IE6 the most... others can use what they want, but I'll stick with IE6 till I find a browser that's truly better.
Apparently Omar is also Hindi for Homer...

I downloaded Firefox once upon a time... in fact a couple times, on different machines to try it out. Didn't take me long to figure out I didn't like it, and I still preferred good ol' IE6. So Firefox went out the Window.
I'd be curious as to how many of the 100 million downloads are actually still installed and being used...
To me, it does. Granted, I run a 1600x1200 desktop and have a two-line taskbar where the task buttons go on it's own line... so I can fit a good 20 windows without overflowing to the next line.
I don't know whether it's just because I've gotten so adept at using IE6 or what, but I prefer opening up a million windows instead of using tabbed browsing. I visit several forums everyday, and I open up many threads in succession... and I do so with SHIFT-CLICK, then ALT-TAB to go back to the thread listings, and repeat. I can open up many threads in rapid fashion in this manner, and then proceed to go to each window to read each thread and then close it when I'm done with the thread. I find this is not laggy at all, and every window opens up and loads very quickly.
I'm a fairly savvy computer guy, and I have tried Firefox and Opera... but in the end, believe it or not, I still stick with IE6. And I have tried IE7 yesterday, and I don't like it very much. I realized that here isn't really any reason for me to upgrade to IE7. I'm savvy enough to not get affected by security problems with IE6, and I don't like tabbed browsing... so IE7 is no good to me, especially since it seems more sluggish than IE6.
You'll never find a cheaper all-in-one motherboard (or probably any motherboard) than the ASRock K7S41GX (apparently it's Asus' cheaper brand). The regular price of it is about US$45, and I've seen them go on sale locally for CDN$45, which amounts to about US$36! I've actually built close to a dozen office rigs with starting from a year ago, and all the machines have been rock solid.

And no, invisiblesoul.com is NOT me.
Maybe this new Power chip can power the P-P-P-Powerbook...

Worse than that, what about the episode where he scrawls "El Homo" on the side of the house he's painting?

So now that MP3 players can play videos as well, what's next? Maybe they can add support for video games. Wait, they already have those...

I don't think this will ever get by the regulatory commission. It's much too vague with the comparison.
Calling stealing songs off the Internet as piracy, gives us pirates a bad name. Call it a five finger discount or something else.
It's the two click discount.
