THAT'S IT!
I'm sick and tired of IE and its burps and farts. Lately I cannot seem to open a page without getting a warning about a security risk to my computer. Even Amazon seems to plot against my PC's safety.
And don't get me started on how I sweated blood for IE (version lower than 7 to be precise) to properly render the alpha transparency of the PNGs on my website. And when I finally did it, the css doesn't validate. Of course it doesn't validate if I have to use some hacky coding to have a decent looking website in IE.
From now on, I'll be using IE only when strictly necessary (like some online language courses - I speak from recent experience) and at work obviously, since apparently our ITs haven't heard of Firefox before.
I bet they all use it at home, though. Sneaky bastards. ;)
I just noticed - Firefox seems to spot little typos as I write, I don't even have to use the spell checker. Cool.
Oh, and the add-on themes are awesome, too. I'm using the 300-based one and I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.
Why haven't I thought of this rant before? Gee, I don't know. I grew up using the Netscape navigator, which always crashed whenever I visited my mom at work to use it, then I finally got a decent computer that's been able to sustain the Internet connection and stuck with IE, because the only time I tried Firefox it seemed a little slow and lazy... And I hated the look - so dull and gray. Who knew about the add-on themes
Yes, go ahead and sue me for being stupid. It certainly won't be the first time. ;P
