I partially view this as an indirect victory for KHTML.

Good riddance. At least 25 million people will cease to use that rubbish (eventually).

Oh no, I'm so sad   :rolleyes: . Are they just trying to get more reasons to stick with Windows?

Someone pointed out that newspaper will not get the message behind all this and interpret this as a loss for Apple and beginning of the end (again!). Personally, I don

good riddence.  When was the last time any of us actually used IE?

Also, they claim that there will no longer be standalone versions of IE for windows.  I thought that ever since 98 they were all integrated like we all hated.

Too bad Apple doesn't write a decent browser for 9.  I have noticed IE is a major cause for computer crashes. At my school, each time I look in the trash, I see lots of IE rescue files. And people say that Macs are unstable. Go figure.

Nice to see that Microsoft figured out what was making OS X a pain to use for a lot of people and fixed it!

I get sick of whenever I accidentally launch IE and have it freeze up on me, although a trip to Force Quit... always solves the problem for me. It's like it's a demo for how resistant the OS is to kill -9.
