Re: IE stinks on OS X too (Reply to this comment)

Thanks for mentioning that. I'm starting to think Microsoft, perhaps, either just doesn't give a damn or the folks over there have started to believe the company hype.

Using Microsoft stuff on a Mac is damn near heresy, anyway.

IE stinks on OS X too (Reply to this comment)
by iBen
there are no more out of memory messages because the operating system takes care of allocation and virtual memory, but the browser still blows.

Its slow... its prone to crashes... the interface is ugly in comparison... and i get bombarded with pop ups.

Ditch IE5... on every platform!

Yep...I know someone very close to my heart who shops not only eBay, but Gun Broker.com, Auction Arms, all the shooting supplies online stores....and he does it on company time as well!

And I've heard others 'fess up about it too! They also get all the good "rated x" jokes at work.

That's why I get all those naughty ones forwarded to me that have an "OPEN CAREFULLY" subject line!

Well, I don't figure I'll get in too much trouble at work about Epinions. Why, no one at work goofs off on the Internet, right? Nobody would bother with, say, shopping on eBay and such, would they?

I figure we're all guilty as hell at the paper of playing more than we should. That's my hope, anyway!

you not only skirted a rule by installing Netscape, and that you goof off on Epinions!

Man, you have babies to feed, don't be so bold in telling on yourself!

Like you, IE works good for us at home on our Windows. Never had a Mac, so guess won't have to worry about it there!

Good job telling it like it is, but quit putting a noose around your own neck!
