The big browser that couldn’t
Jan 18th, 2010 by ravi

Anyone who ever had to write a bit of HTML, CSS or JavaScript usually employs a therapist or anger management expert to help deal with the stress of having to deal with Internet Explorer. Now, thanks to its other celebrated feature, to wit it’s generosity towards malware and viruses, some European governments might be helping out:

France and Germany warned against using IE6, 7 and 8 France has echoed calls by the German government for web users to find an alternative to Microsoft’s Internet Explorer (IE) to protect security.

John Dvorak on Apple
Nov 2nd, 2009 by ravi

This is John Dvorak commenting on the Apple Macintosh in 1984:

The nature of the personal computer is simply not fully understood by companies like Apple (or anyone else for that matter). Apple makes the arrogant assumption of thinking that it knows what you want and need. It, unfortunately, leaves the “why” out of the equation — as in “why would I want this?” The Macintosh uses an experimental pointing device called a ‘mouse’. There is no evidence that people want to use these things. I dont want one of these new fangled devices.
