tho there are cases where corporate developers only test the site in IE because they are on very tight schedules and budgets, and just want to get the job done, as such its not their fault that the middle management are eggheads
firefox in corporate environments faces this issues (in no particular order):
*no activeX *not backed by a huge company so perceived lack of support *legacy web applications produced in ASP and older ASP.net that break horribly in firefox (and even latest IE7! yes ive seen it happen) *it depertments are slow to change and adapt and are very conservative *users complain of the fonts and sites looking/feeling different than what they are used to
take a look at the sectarian violence in the middle east now between shias and sunnis over minor interpretation of gods will (tho i suspect religion is just an excuse for racial hate that we are seeing, nowhere in the koran does it say killing innocents is ok)
nowadays religion brings nothing good it seems, what happened to compassion and love thy neighbour? instead we get peadophile priests and sexual abuse cases,
what happened to helping the poor? last i checked the Vatican is rich beyond belief and is rung better than most corporations out there
this theory would fit nicely with the "world is only 6000 years old crowd"
i mean swarms of insects were mentioned in the bible (old testament, moses exodus part?) somewhere, i dont remember reading about asteroids in that book
