The babble of a middle-aged lunatic.
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?

Funny AND realistic. Gasp!

I don't know which is funnier, the web page or the fact some people think its for real...


It's reminiscent of the time when some twit suggested the FBI & CIA owned Google....

Or when it was suggested our esteemed Mr Wardell had installed political filters into the Stardock mainframe.

Okay, so he has Joe User/WC surveilance cameras installed on several of NASA's weather satellites ....but political filters, I'm finding that a tad hard to believe.

I don't think that FireFox will ever want to collaborate or merge in with Microsoft. Not a smart thing to do.


Not that I think this would happen, but I ask you: Why do you think it is not smart?

Cos they don't wanna end up with a name like MozillaSoft...or MicroZilla, maybe?

This is just lame response by M$ because they didn't have the foresight to register the domain IE7.COM.

Check it out.

Ah to be so plugged into the counter-culture of subversion to refer to Microsoft as 'M$'....

So cutting edge....such acerbic wit....

Maybe if MS did own Linux it'd actually become mainstream enough to be usable.  Not everyone looks good in a propeller hat, you know...
