I know the reasons, honest I do, its just that in trying to sing the praises of nnvda I come up against the IE problem all the time as the one reason not to use it. I myself am warming to Firefox, as a lot of what it does it seems to do in a more logical fashion to IE anyway, so no need to sell it to me.

It does seeem a little long winded in loading though on some machines. Firefox that is.

hi,
it really doesn't matter if you think firefox is the future or not. The point is internet explorer is on most computers at colleges and public places. The only way around this is to carry a portable version of firefox. This isn't ideal for some situations because firefox doesn't work with every type of control. The programmers do have a point in saying if you don't want to wait you can allways write internet explorer support your self. For now we have support for firefox, so if people really need a good program then use firefox. I think if we wait internet explorer support will come. The programmers had to do firefox support first because they recieved a grant to do the work. So to make my point, just calm down people. I say give the programmers a break they work hard and they will get more done if we don't bug them about internet explorer support.

See the following article from a reputable source on the subject of browser
market share. The article also has a few interesting comments on Firefox
3.0 and its advantages and disadvantages over version 2. Again, anyone
reading this article who is not interested in promoting ideology over
fac-based assessments will have to admit that firefox, though a good
browser, is not the coming of the millennium.
