I actually wrote an article on my own blog about how Microsoft is making a huge mistake by not supporting or rather ignoring other platforms. I'm not a Firefox fanboi or anything, I think the browser has a lot of problems but IE has more. I have to say I personally alternate between Firfox 2 and OmniWeb. Firefox sometimes runs a little slow cause it's a RAM hog so I have to switch browsers. As with Mozilla Songbird versus Apple iTunes, I think some people may choose to use browsers like IE7 or Safari cause the interfaces look nicer and because they don't need or are not interested in all the plugins that Firefox offers like the Web Developer Toolbar or the User Agent Switcher to name a couple.

I would lhave liked to see more information on the specific features of IE compared to Firefox. Also, I would've liked to see more information on some of the problems still being worked on my Microsoft. Other than that, it was very clearly written and had some good points. Good article.
