Why Does Apple Still Have An IE6 Screenshot on its Quicktime Download Page?

• jeggers5 15y ago
  They like to show Window's in an obsolete manor, that or they aren't bothered to change it. I don't know if you noticed but the icon for a networked windows pc in the Finder is actually a pc with the blue screen of death :P (I find that a little unprofessional of Apple tbh tho)

    It's kind of an easter egg since most users will never notice unless it's the few people that make their Finder icons absolutely huge. It's definitely just to poke fun and since it isn't in anyone's face, it's not that unprofessional.

  Looks like Safari on a Mac to me

    If you're using IE then the screenshot has an IE window frame.

      It's an IE frame for me on Chrome/Win.

        Same for Firefox/Win.

      I notice the contents are misaligned too...

  You need to access the link from a Windows machine. Even on Windows 7, an IE6 screenshot shows up.

  They want it to look exactly as most Windows users will see it.

  Who uses QuickTime anyways? Nobody cares about it. Quite frankly, I haven't noticed it while looking at this page an hour ago.
