You seem to care about the percentages a lot. Less tahn 1 % change. And you sound like you won the lottery. Who cares what browser people use. Microsoft gives theres away just like Firefox does.
I could care less about the actual percentages. What's significant here is that FireFox has stopped growing its market share. Which means that a bunch of OSS zealots aren't going to be able to hijack Web standards. Which is fine by me. I would prefer to see control over Web standards maintained by American commercial interests rather than Commie pinkos who support the Chinese, North Koreans, etc...

Pages designed correctly with w3c will render on Firefox, Opera, Safari, and ie... Come to think of the only web applications and site I have seen that will only work on one browser are ones tuned for ie... Microsoft has used market share to screw up standards..

And I would prefer that a single company (I don't care who it is) screw up existing web standards and in doing so destroy other products... but then again I'm not an MS fanboy..

"

What's significant in this graph is that MS has stopped growing in its web server market share.
The sound you hear, ladies and gentleman, is Bush2000 choking on his own words.

Which means that a bunch of OSS zealots aren't going to be able to hijack Web standards. You mean keep writing a browser that supports the current Web standards, made by the W3C, of which Microsoft is a member. Microsoft admits IE's CSS incompatibility is a deficiency, and therefore recognizes, although doesn't implement, Web standards.
