With all the JS you do it must be one sweet gig. I have to support IE @
work but luckily IE's JS engine performance is so crappy that I was able to
convince the powers that be to at least upgrade to IE 8. IE 8 and below is
as nimble as a bucket of sludge with some JS intensive apps. IE 9 is is a
lot better but FF and Chrome leaves IE 9 in the dust. I have grown to
despise IE6 and IE in general. But it is what it is. We all have our
torments and apparently IE is mine.
