It's called "for the greater good". If you knew doing something caused
misery, wouldn't you stop? I guess you wouldn't. I happen to be a
developer. Oh, how I wish people would stop using it. Old habits die
hard, particularly when those using it have no idea the misery it causes
for people who bring you nifty things like forums, blogs, and websites.
As Sheena pointed out: it's leaky, as well.

Nice article. Personally, we use Safari & Firefox. Both fabulous on a MAC,
and have fortunately never, ever, had a system OS problem. Like them both -
a lot.
Also have Netscape & IE - IE is the worst, most likely to lock-up, not work
right. Used to have a couple of sites we used for business stuff the
insisted on IE - fortunately they changed to work with Safari or Firefox or
Netscape (earlier). So, for some years we've had Safari & Firefox in the
"Dock" - and try to avoid the unreliable Microsoft products. Do use Office,
which for the most part is reliable - except for periodic bugs in Word which
means you have to know to go and empty the library users cache preferences.

And I will say to you again - no problems with MS, especially not with
Office (and I have the besmirched 2007 currently), Word within Office,
never had to do anything about emptying anything for that!
Netscape I dropped at Netscape 7, rubbish. Opera is great as is FF.
I do use IE once in a long while for very specific reasons, such as
checking my web site appears correctly if someone is using IE, but
that's about it.
I smile that Mac users feel they must bash MS - they don't use it but
are convinced it is all malfunctioning, well I can tell you, it
doesn't. Oh, and I have never had a virus or trojan. Best of all,
it all costs far less.
