These people liked IE, the worst browser ever?!? They reject standardization?

Apparently you weren't doing web development back in the Netscape 4.7 days. :)

IE 5.5 and 6 were actually big steps forward for web standards back in 2000-2001. They were actually decent browsers then. Not perfect, but no one was. The problem isn't IE6 - it's that Microsoft stopped with IE6 for such a long time.
