Microsoft to Mac Users - Don't use IE

This is really ironic.

For the first time in ... forever, Microsoft gave the message to ditch IE. If you load the MSN home page in IE 5 for Mac, from what I've heard, the rendering is horrid and there is a big message at the top that advises users to go with another browser.

Wow.

Take a look at this. Look at the second result in Google. "If you are using Internet Explorer for Mac, we recommend that you use another browser to have an optimal experience on MSN." This is a first. A MS browser cannot properly render a MS website.

As ironic as it may be, this can be a good thing. With MS pushing away Mac users, they will get accustomed to other browsers and will want to use those if they ever use Windows in the future.

The death of IE will really start innovation online.
