We were going to make products that were all black and in plain white letters in all caps write "trendygoth.com" on them. That way the kids can really be original. Naturally, this anti-establishment product line would take off and we'd make millions. You want in?<br><br>Brett :o)BrettWed, 03 Jan 2007 12:16:06 -0000http://moogaman.disqus.com/an_apology8230_for_what_i_don8217t_know/#comment-1653780I think we're still on the back burner, we never really came forward... they just turned up our flame a little bit. Its not that its really 'copied' its just that there are a lot of similarities both. In features, the way you use them, and in the way they look. My post wasn't really about Windows Vista though, that was just the setup... my opinion stands that IE7 a crappy browser... at least as far as proper CSS rendering goes. As far as anything else goes, it seems to work just fine. But it, as far as CSS rendering is concerned, is most certain not up to the level of Firefox. Unfortunately for me, and this could largely be due to my inexperience with creating web applications to manage content, the correct rendering of CSS is really mostly all I'm concerned with. So though it may be a fine browser, it has that flaw. However, just like anything other service or product, people will focus on what's wrong with it instead of what's good about it. We don't think about the fact that 388 things do work, its the 1 that doesn't, ya know? Admittedly, the application IE7 itself is a LOT LOT LOT prettier than Firefox. Firefox has themes, but most of them are stupid. Even on the mac, I use Firefox instead of Safari, and every time I open it, I'm annoyed by its uglyness. Its not even simple in an elegant way, its just there. Safari has pretty little drop-down boxes like are in OS X, and it doesn't have the bar at the bottom telling you what's going on, its up at the top and its a lot cleaner and more stylish... still, it too has a couple of CSS rendering problems (the ones I've run into have to do with absolute positioning of text) so I still use Firefox and grumble at its uglyness. <br><br>Don't get angry or pissed off though, its not worth it, its all just opinion. And I'm an evil Mac user anyway, ya know? Most of the world still shuns and hisses at me as I walk by... so mostly I think they'd roll their eyes at my complaining about Microsoft. Of course I'd complain about them, its what Mac users do right, and vice versa? <br><br>Brett :o)BrettTue, 13 Feb 2007 21:04:38 -0000
