I don't dispute the fact that firefox did a great job but you are missing the mark on what their actual issue is and it's not Microsoft. I think we shall agree to disagree on this one :)

Libraries have a short life left. I don't know many people who go to them anymore considering the vast amounts of information on the Internet and now eReaders. Libraries may offer other services than just the loaning of books and dvd's but
