Some designers want to take advantage of IE-only extensions. It's lazy, weak and in some cases (i.e. govt. sites) against the law or bending it severely. I won't spend two minutes trying to tweak my browser(s) to work with a site that fails or is limited in functionality due to my environment. I just walk away.

I will not install IE on my Mac. [sm_devil] |
