It's an interesting topic and your feedback has been very helpful. Thanks again! I'm going to let this information soak in over the weekend. I may be back with more questions! :) Slightly off-topic: Tom, I had actually come across that Stack post when searching for info on how to get IE to unconditionally load media queries. I was trying out Technique #3 found on this page: "Technique 3: Circumvent Media Query Conditions" <http://coding.smashingmagazine.com/2011/08/10/techniques-for-gracefully-degrading-media-queries/> Essentially, it's the opposite of getting a UA to skip a MQ; the goal is to get old IEs (e.g., IE <= 8) to the contents of a media query thus allowing old IEs to load the desktop version of a mobile-first setup: @media screen, all and (min-width: 300px) { div { background: blue; } } Based on my tests, IE6 and IE7 actually read the contents of the @media! Unfortunately, surprisingly, STRANGELY, IE8 doesn't fall in line with it's predecessors. Unbelievable. Sad too. Thanks again Philippe and Tom! It's much appreciated!
