  Haha very true. It reminds me of the time Apple announced that Internet Explorer was going to be the browser for classic Mac OS, with Bill Gates calling in, to shouts of NO!!! NO!!!!! NO!!!! It makes me chuckle. It always boggles the mind that the web is mostly just rendering of documents and flinging backwards and forwards of requests, yet the passion it invokes with browser wars and web developers. A browser is essentially a HTML Help File viewer yet you get followings and wars! It doesn't make sense. Even less sense is made when they reinvent all application features in a web browser to make web pages behave like desktop applications. Kind of useful, but an incessant broken/fix/reimplement cycle
