We’ll just see about that, back when I used Windows they at least limited their Windows Update to IE, and since they had security updates released every hour I’m suspicious of their intentions

What? Did you read any of my post at all?

It all goes back to their lack of interest in following standards and best practices.

You’d find they have followed standards and best practices, thats why it works in Firefox and Opera. However there are still issues yet to be resolved, so that’s why it’s not accessible through Firefox yet.

Obviously you’d want to support your own products first, so thats why Internet Explorer comes first. But no part of Microsoft’s intention is to block out non-IE browsers.

Lots of sites come out in beta and never try to block any particular browser. They’re getting worse press for blocking non-IE browsers than having a buggy beta site. The fact that a browser creator is trying to block other browsers to anything they own is significant.

I’m a web developer and I have no trouble at all creating complex sites that work in every browser without having any special code for each. Yet the company that claims to be the world’s best software developer can’t do it? That’s rediculous. It all goes back to their lack of interest in following standards and best practices.
