Seeing the Netscape thread reminded me of this. {Tongue Out}

MS Firefox

Re: Microsoft Buys Firefox - Posted By BizzD (0wnzer) on 30th Dec 07 at 8:18pm
W00t go Microsoft!

I use IE so really not much of a difference. {Smile}
Safari would be awsome though.

Re: Microsoft Buys Firefox - Posted By Graham (amusedtodeath) on 30th Dec 07 at 11:16pm
A hand will pop through the monitor, and slap the person attempting it. {Tongue Out}

I already knew this was a fake, as I get Newsletters from Mozilla, and they would have said it on the home page as well, {Tongue Out} .

God, make me cry Crow... I almost believed you.. *silent cry*


Re: Microsoft Buys Firefox - Posted By Marc (cr0w) on 31st Dec 07 at 5:50am
I'm surprised Ross doesn't use FF. I [and many I know] used to use IE, until we got into coding. Then you learn about compatibility & standards, and find out that IE sucks when it comes to either.

Microsoft refuses to accept any standard that they didn't create, thus their browser engines do not parse properly. >.<

I'm not saying FF and Opera's engines are perfect; just that they're a lot better than IE. {Wink}

Re: Microsoft Buys Firefox - Posted By XeroCint (kai) on 31st Dec 07 at 5:53am
I hang out with lots of coders and designers, plus am learning to code and design, so... that's how I got introduced to FF

Re: Microsoft Buys Firefox - Posted By Fel!x (felix) on 3rd Jan 08 at 2:11am
All the screen shots are of IE 7 with a firefox icon over the IE one xD

Happy I not dumb ^ ^;

Re: Microsoft Buys Firefox - Posted By tricky.cb (crazyblue) on 3rd Jan 08 at 2:11am
Old joke. I didn't even have to click on it because the day that happens I wont read about it randomly on a message board.

Wow, I made the same thread one year ago with the same title. Hacks! {Tongue Out}

Re: Microsoft Buys Firefox - Posted By blu (blu) on 3rd Jan 08 at 2:30am
