Microsoft Acquires Mozilla FireFox!

Published on November 21, 2006 By Xythe In Personal Computing

I wasn't to sure I saw things correctly when I went to the FireFox homepage to download FireFox 2 onto my notebook.

But much to my surprise, I wound up at the MS FireFox home page!

I have not heard of anything about this, and it took me quite by surprise. Did any of you guys hear of anything like this happening?

How do you feel about Microsoft's acquisition of FireFox?

That's certainly one of the more original jockes I have come across lately. Hehe
I especially liked the bit about security:

So where do I go to get this on? Oh, and does it come with virtual REALITY features so I'd feel like I'm REALLY enjoying it?

We appreciate your patronage, and plan the virtual sex reality in the next update CCS (completely complex sex), coming in the middle of december.

Our debute will consist of a lucious female santa that gives all good boys whatever they ask for, and all the naughty boys a good spanking.
