Talk, Rumors, X Versus Y "In this mini-writeup, we will be discussing from a fairly objective position how Internet Explorer 7 now stands compared to the latest offerings from it's biggest competitors: Firefox and Opera. This isn't a comparison, there will be no 'winner', not in this article at any rate!"

Awful

I don't know that I can even finish. The review is filled with the typical wet-noodle "everyone is competing and we win" crap that all the reviews have.
Then he goes on to make spelling errors such as:
"No matter how many computer techies or script-kiddies or hackers out there no how great a product is"
Sure, it's a blog, but come on, don't call names and make spelling errors in one sentence...

Firefox blends to its environment, I can't believe a reviewer is actually saying that's a bad default... It's like the default of all defaults ;) .
I would like to mention to the author that the way a program looks is not its interface, it's its look. The interface was covered correctly in everything but firefox.

Since when did the Mozilla Foundation claim 10% market share for Firefox? I believe independent "studies" have said that, and others have said 8 and 7 and 9 and 11 and 15, etc.


This review is shallow, often wrong, useless, and badly written.
