   Personally, I still wouldn’t touch IE with a 10ft pole. Besides, the new IE will only be beta this summer, and the final version probably won’t be released until months after that.

   Actually, Chris, i do belive the proper quote is: “I wouldn’t touch him with a 61/2 inch pole”… I’ve seen enough Grinch in my day to know lol… :-)

   I actually wasn’t quoting a movie, Bryan, but using the popular expression

   and for teh record, MS wasn’t even ever planning on introducing a new IE until I think the new windows version came out, but they are scare of losing ground with an old product. maybe they need to learn to perfect something old (read: should have stayed with win2k and office 2k)

   another good site for thsi kind of info. they say that Ford has a big to-to with this. They threatened to dump IE for Firefox if MS didn’t come up with something better before the 2006 longhorn release

   (By the way, it’s actually a 39-and-a-half-foot pole in the song.)
