| Why would Google be so stupid as to hire the lead programmer of a hunk of sh**t browser that a declining number of people are continuing to use. |

I guess they're just not as smart as you are.

| AWBrian and Parkker, this means that Google is doomed along with Firefox right? |

Obviously, this helps clarify the judgment capability of our esteemed ActiveWin colleagues (Parkker and AWBrian). This post was edited by ch on Tuesday, January 25, 2005 at 11:30. |

| Parkker, that doesn't really answer my question though. According to you Firefox will never even reach a statistically important percentage of the browser market share as you predict its usage will fizzle out over the next few months. Therefore your answer #3 doesnt make much sense unless you are saying that Google cares that its search engine and ads are displayed on the dwidling number of Firefox users. Wouldnt this only make sense for Google if GoogleFox actually had a significant market share? |

| tgnb, all i have said is that I think that IE is better than FF. Where do you get your ideas from? |

| AWBrian acutally you said a WHOLE lot more than just that. Maybe go back and review what you've posted over the last few months on that topic to refresh your memory. |

| Parkker the sad thing is that you proabaly really believe what your spouting here. |

| I guess you didn't know that the best way to get rid of a troll is to ignore them? |
