RE: [OT] Info about MS dropping IE development
thanks to everyone for the information, it was an interesting read and the screen caps of longhorn remind me very heavily of QNX (a great Canadian company ;-) -Sean ___ metacard mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/metacard
RE: [OT] Info about MS dropping IE development
Sean, My understanding of it: MS is saying they're planning on 'embedding' the browser into the next operating system "Longhorn" available sometime in 2005-6 and they're not doing any major upgrades to IE until that time when of course it will be named something else. (personal opinion) I think it's amazing MS got away from the Justice Dept so easily (nice to have so many Congressmen in your pocket) -- this 'embedded browser' was part of what they were originally being sued for. I have to say, this and the SCO business really show MS for what a diabolical company it really is. I personally hope it backfires on them, and Mozilla and other browsers end up being de facto. -Chipp > -Original Message- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Shao Sean > Sent: Wednesday, June 18, 2003 4:42 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [OT] Info about MS dropping IE development > > > > to become an even more significant trend now that MS has > > dropped IE development. > > this has been mentioned a few times on this list and i tried > finding information regarding it on microsoft's website but > to no avail.. anyone have any URL's they can email me > offlist > > -Sean > ___ > metacard mailing list > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/metacard > ___ metacard mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/metacard

I suggest anyone interested go to Google News and search on Internet Explorer. You'll see a lot of recent stories about their discontinuation of IE for the Mac, but scroll down a bit and you'll see that they've also announced that they will no longer have a separate IE product for Windows, either. They plan to integrate the capability into their next version of the Windows OS, codenamed Longhorn. >>-Sean > >How about putting the URLs onlist?
