Microsoft has been bringin' me down over IE5.5 for Windows Misc.6/5/2000; 7:13:47 AM April 10, 2000: Even as I've been going into spastic twitching fits over Mozilla (If you've ever seen Disney's Alladin, think Jafar's first few seconds of being a genie... "The power! The incredible power! The stars leap at my command!" or something to that effect), Microsoft has been bringin' me down over IE5.5 for Windows. The Web Standards Projects had some stuff to say about it, and I second it.

It's so hard to quantify and express, because we do not have an alternate universe where everybody agrees with standards, but please believe me when I say that this arrogance from Microsoft will cost you personally, both in additional exprenses for developing the software you use (always passed on to the consumer, one way or another), and in software you will never see.

Amusement: When I went to The Register's article, guess who had an advertisement in the sidebar? (Yep.)
