no that's your interpretation. I merely implied firefox was better than IE.
and if your a webdeveloper then atm it is the best browser for one simple reason - firebug.

bully for you. given that this is the world of web2.0 I'd imagine your
browsing is rather limited. it's also masochistic given that you apparently
choose to use an inferior product (as per your own opinion)

ah so my supposed opinion needs to take a back seat to your "better" opinion,
no renderer is perfect. and they're all slightly different. let's not forget
that nobody outside of IT actually uses Opera and Safari is only used by MacHeads
(which account for about 0.1% of the population) - recommending firefox is mostly about
educating Joe Average to the possiblities of an alternative that is used by more than
5 people already.
