    Its amazing how many great choices we have in the browser market. Why use IE6?

    Why use IE6? Because I'm familiar with it and it runs WoW.

    Your toaster runs WoW, but if it doesn't have a ground prong, you're still behind the times. :p

    Thank God for Win 7's wonderful reception, at least.

    He was referring to WoWers, not IE6 users. :p

    So it takes THREE versions of Firefox combined to have more market share then IE6 all by its antique self that I still use? Okay.

    Yeah, it looks so much better on my Tandy 1000TX and 12" VGA monitor too.

    Hey, they still work for us, right? Who needs to upgrade!
  • edited November 2009
    Somewhere, someone actually has to use that for some ancient machine that *has* to work for some purpose.

    I love it. Even without directly referencing Tim in the article, it still turns into Tim-based lulz.

    It's about time! I think that the share of IE6 will take a hit with a lot of Windows XP users migrating to Windows 7 in the next year or two.

    Part of me wants to craft an IE6 hijack page and get Tim to go to it just because he deserves it.

    A slightly larger part of me doesn't want the FBI showing up at my workplace or apartment looking for me though.

    I feel immensely sorry for anybody that takes tech advice from Tim... if such a person exists.
