While I agree this may suck ... Do not lose track of the fact that we
develop for a world-wide audience and more often than not a CLIENT or
BOSS pays us to do so. And if over half of the users on the planet are
using IE6 or some form thereof ... And I will still get paid the same
amount of money to make my apps IE6 complaint, then
a-developing-for-IE-I-Will-Go.

I mean, where do you really want to be?
What are your goals if it is not to build web apps usable by the
majority of users in the world?

Because fighting the browser war seems to be a bit of a losing place to
me.

Sure Opera is great. I like Opera. Our apps work on Opera. They work in
Moz. They even work in Netscape 6 and IE 5 on a mac and IE 6. w00t!

What features of IE 6 are so despicable that you can't code apps to work
on it?
Are those features so life illuminating that they must be used?

It musn't be very important if 57% (200,600,563) of 350,808,318 Visitors
during the month of April 2003 to websites running www.thecounter.com 's
counter app use IE6, a number that has pretty much been the same for a
long time.

For a full browser line-up for the month of April:

But as always to each their own ... :)
