1. Comment - Opera CEO von Tetzchner: Microsoft's IE8 'turn-off' is not enough

   (Mar 20, 2009 - 4:37 PM)

   Honestly, I think it was a good strike from Opera, Mozilla and Google. Something like an interactive program who lets users choose the browser that fits his/her needs: In this case, I think Chrome would win. Second Firefox and third Opera in a Windows OS.
   @ all people who say Opera sucks:
   That's your opinion, that may not be the reality. Opera is a very good browser, in my opinion. If it had add-ons (like Firefox, that I'm using at the moment), it would certainly be the most used browser.
   @ blabbery
   Dude calm down!!! Same thing before - THAT'S YOUR OPINION!!! Of course, Microsoft may have broken the law, I know. Did you read the article?! Things are getting better by now (IE can be uninstalled by the time of Windows 7, according to the article).
   
   Now about the JavaScript engines and benchmarkings...I don't think it's SO important. A thing I think it would be a priority is tweaking the existing browser and/or add more features!!
   The average Joe just wants to do basic stuff like surfing around things like Myspace...Youtube...And the majority still uses IE 6, which is wrong. In my opinion Microsoft should let the already existing companies do the work on the browsing. Something like some UNIX distros do. Take for example DLS (Damn Small Linux), it's just a basic OS, with more apps! I mean, Microsoft should concentrate on the OS, and leave the Media Players, Browsers, Image editors/viewers do their work! I'm not saying that they should quit, but to let the user to the choice. It would let the market grow, and get the competition flowing.
