Sorry but you’re just BSing yourself now.

There is no fanatic like a Microsoft-hating open source fanatic. I meet crazies like you on tech boards all the time. Trying to make any sense of anything people like you say, is a complete waste of time.

I hate IE8 because it’s a piece of crap,”

I have used IE8 for much, much longer than you have. I use it every day for several hours, and have been using it for over 2 years, so I know what am talking about. You simply DON'T!

wouldn’t matter which company made it.”

Yeah..and Saddam Hussein is still partying every night in downtown Baghdad too.

Lie to yourself if you must, but reality is what reality is, and reality that IE8 sucks”

You wouldn't know reality if it it you right between the eyes.
IE8 is one of the best browsers out there right now, and I am speaking from personal experience.

You know what?
You'd better prepare yourself for a long, nasty fight on this one, cause you are not going to be allowed to get away with your FUD and propaganda on this matter. Not if I can help it.

You’re so unintentionally funny. Exactly which open source browser do I worship? Quote me. Go ahead. See you assume that because I don’t like IE8 I worship open source and am anti-MS, but we all know about ass-u-me don’t we.

I’m sure you have used IE8 more than me, I learned to avoid pain growing up and IE8 is a pain. I keep IE6 on the machines I don’t have to have 8 on, it’s not great but at least it stays out of my way. That’s my primary problem with 8, it’s always trying to help, and like most apps that spend a lot of time trying to help it just gets in the way.

I’m not fighting at all. And every time you get nasty you just prove yourself wrong. People with facts on their side don’t need to get nasty, ad hominems are for losers. I haven’t spread any FUD or propaganda, I’m simply pointing out how and why IE8 annoys me. And no amount of silly insults from Mr Assume will change that.
