Why is it that a "standards-based" browser that passes the Acid2 (like IE8) still doesn't render certain pages correctly, and others (like Opera, Firefox 3 Beta, etc.) do?
Maybe we're reaching a plateau of innovation in the desktop computer world... what more could they possibly do to the OS/hardware while keeping costs down and appealing to the typical user?
Maybe they're just saving the cool stuff for Christmas...

try opening this link in IE8, then in another standards complaint browser. notice that IE8 doesn't display it right.
