This is where you mention IE and link it with gx, and gx didnt mention anything abt IE anywhere. He need not to quote it.

Same case is with you . Everyone knows here Gx is a windows fanboy (and makes tons of spelling mistakes ), but you have exceeded even him with your mac fanboyism. So if him being a fanboy pi*ses you off then just look in the mirror.

Gx in this thread never said anything to deserve these harsh comments.

And i think mods are angry with me , some mod/admin edited my usertitle from admilistraltor to traltor. great

I knew this was coming up next. He did not need to expressly mention it for us to know that he is satisfied with the review because it rated Internet Explorer far higher than it is worth.

And stop the advocacy already.

I am getting those Anti-aliasing effects in FF2, Afaik,"Cleartype Technology" is just AntiAliasing. Its nothing special, MS just likes to spread propoganda. GNOME offers u to select speed or best shapes,subpixel-rendering etc using gnome-font-properties.btw In Debian GNU/Linux,i uses corefonts and other ttf fonts like Bit stream vera sans for better font properties and it does look better!

I basically uses GNU/Linux and it uses xfontserver,xfontserver-truetype for managing all sorta display things for X.org.regarding MS windows and firefox settings..i am pwned-not a M$ user

You dont need me to tell what i should do or not, you gave such rubbish reply because you had nothing better to say.
Next time be reasonable , such crap post clearly shows you are a windows anti-fanboy. Blaming a user for what he has not written, and only because 'you thought' he ment something else, is sad.

I saw the DJ site and it renders correctly because the site has not used formatting setings like Justification of text, you can see no part of text is justified on any pages. And my site is not designed for IE only , as i told the site works perfectly in opera and i have also tested it in safari . Only firefox shows that problem and as i wrote some one made a grease monkey script to take care of that, but thats not the perfect solution.

Ok , i will surely do that.

Edit: Done , hope they include the fix in next version of ff.

[Mohnishgs]

cmon guys............ its the ease of use that matters the most........

[nagarjun_424]

FF is the "in" thing! Its the best!

[anu_smile]

i like internet explorer and opera. Both are doing good for me.

[hcp006sl]

The review must be by some FF fan who is using it for years.
I found Opera much useful than FF. But, in some cases FF rocks.
Opera & FF together can replace IE, even in case of Windows update.
Does any user of DataOne have any idea how to check DataOne usage without IE - Widows only feature? You can say FF + IE tab. Then please do it at Linux desktop, I promise I would never use Opera from that day. The only solution is Opera. Now limitation of Opera - open the website: http://wbut.net/ - you must notice something.

I like WAND in Opera

FF is the "in" thing, therefore its the best? now thats queer reasoning, isnt it?

[nepcker]

They didn't test Safari? Safari was the first browser to pass the Acid 2 test, and it's much more better than all the other browsers. They didn't even test Camino (from Mozilla), which is the browser I'm currently using.

[abhijangda]

Hey friends do anything IE7 is the best because of it's previliges security.

Uh... because both of them are Mac only browsers and they were only interested in Windows stuff.

Plus, who cares for the opinions of these stupid guys anyway! Seeing the amount of knowledge they have about Opera and their misconception about the usefulness of Internet Explorer, it isn't likely that they would have rated the other browsers fairly.

[nepcker]

Whatever the report says - Safari is the best browser. Yes, Firefox is good too, but Safari's still the best.

As for IE, it is the worst browser that I've ever used..... ever!

[Pathik]

well not used safari much but i can surely say that on windows and linux the best browser is opera...

[aryayush]

Yup, it sure is. Opera is also by far the most feature laden browser on Mac OS X too, but the interface sucks. The developers have just ported the thing to the Macintosh platform without reworking the interface, so it has the same ugly Windows interface on the Mac too. And no one likes to use ugly applications, Mac users least of all.

When I used Windows (those dark ages), Opera was my primary browser and I never felt its interface was ugly. In fact, I felt it had the best interface among web browsers. And so do most other people who use Opera. Its interface is hardly ever criticised on the Windows platform. That is because it is really a good interface as far as Windows is concerned because Windows APIs had not supported really advanced interface elements till XP (though Vista is all set to change that now, if the forthcoming version of Yahoo! Messenger is any example).
However, the same interface is practically crap on the Mac platform. It has no three dimensional elements, drawers, animations, transparency, does not follow standard Mac OS X rules such as using the zoom button to expand/contract the browser's size to fit the content within, dragging text clippings, system-wide dictionary and spell-check, etc. And look at the other browsers, specially the Cocoa ones. Opera looks pathetic when compared to Safari, OmniWeb, Camino or Shiira.
Yes, I know everyone wants a good interface but what is a good interface for Windows users is probably crap for Mac users because they are used to much better interface design. I am not boasting or preaching anything here - just stating the facts as is. Which is why I said that "no one likes to use ugly applications, Mac users least of all."
I hope Yahoo! sets a precedent that other developers follow, if only for the sake of offering proper competition, which will spur Apple to further improve their interface design.

I hope it never does!
It is fun being a member of an exclusive and elite club of Mac users.
