Browser Mania

Another of my bad days… Early morning got a stupid phone call from that rat… Fedup… Disturb my sleep… Have you ever seen such a creature… Totally BPS…
Nothing much for the day except that I downloaded something cool… Though not really that cool after I started using it… The new Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 Beta MSDN..Microsoft Developers… Meaning it is only meant for developers… Haha… But I managed to get it… Now… Have to install SP2 before the IE 7 installation… And what did I get in IE7 Beta? An ugly looking browser… What is Microsoft doing? Its products are going downhill after they progressed up… The IE7 Beta looks atrocious… It is definitely a badly copied version of the Mozilla Firfox… which looks fantastic… Opera also looks quite bad… This IE7 has the tabs above the settings-where they have the File, Edit and all- and they have the address bar above the tabs with the back and forward button… It is damn ugly… Even the icon looks ugly…. Hope the developers give the right feedback to Microsoft…
Talking about bad Microsoft products… The up and coming Windows Vista… Another nonsense product by Microsoft… In Longhorn… Microsoft managed to change the look into a whole new one… different from all the other Windows… including XP.. And now… they are back with these XP look-a-like Vista.. which is a new codename for the Longhorn… The name is also not as impressive as Longhorn… If you had read in papers or mags.. You would realise that Longhorn has this bar at the side with the round clock which many are crazy over… People even download themes for XP to experience it… And now they changed it back to the XP style bar at the bottom again… Just that its black and the XP style start menu- meaning the one where you see your picture, name, etc- displays more things… Stupid idea… Who is the idiot who thought of this…
