  • Microsoft: Losing Market Share in a Non-Existent Browser Market?  [View article]
    Wow, what a crock!

    Microsoft is exiting browsers as others enter? This is a Microsoft habit? Why did MS follow Apple into the music player market, when the MP3 market was maturing? When will Microsoft follow Apple into the cellphone market?

    Don't you realize that most people's only contact with MS is thru the browser? If it gives people a lousy experience, guess how people view MS? If it exits the browser market, guess how people perceive MS?

    By the way, Net Applications has more than 2 years of data on their website. There's a little "left arrow" that allows you to go back further. I believe they go back to 2004. In October 2004, MSIE had 92.18%, and now they have 68.15%, a drop of 24%. While rationalizing that it's just Netscape's share that Firefox and others have gained, they seem to have fought alot harder to gain Netscape's share than given it up.
