Yes, partially that. But I still prefer Mozilla 4.7 (a.k.a. Netscape Navigator
4.7) and the Milestone versions of Mozilla 5 over any MSIE, just on principle.
Plus, MS hasn't even released MSIE for my operating system, so I couldn't run
it on my main system even if I wanted to. I keep an old system around for
regression tests. Just fixed something yesterday in fact which was still a
problem in MSIE3 for some users.
Mainly, I continue to frustrated because of the server-side issues, not
because of client issues. As a client, I think MSIE4&5 are great. As a
whole, however, from the server side, the whole MSIE range is quite ugly.

I need to start a "rant" webpage and keep the discussion there.
