One unfettered by needless dislike of software that definitely does get the job done and with fewer hassles.
Over the years I’ve used (Chronologically) lynx, Netscape, IE, Opera and Phoenix/Firebird/Firefox. I’ve always come back to IE. It’s the most convenient. It loads up faster. I dislike tabbed dialogs, and I care more for compatibility with existing sites than with lofty ideals in my browser. Firefox – even 1.0 – simply didn’t cut it. It had bugs. It crashed. It didn’t load some of my daily sites right.

Yes they are, Kibo bless their geeky little souls.
That’s still not as funny as searching for “famous french victories” with the ‘feel lucky’ option.

Yes, but while that was deliberate joke (which doesn’t work anymore, btw), this was purely a side-effect of Google’s over-helpfullness.
Hence cooler.

odd. I ran the same search, and didn’t get this suggestion.

I ran this one about a year ago. Took the screenshot then. Posted it now because it came up in conversation this morning.

A quick but exhaustive search (i.e. banging on my keyboard) produced this a second ago:

One notes that you use Internet Explorer. What kind of geek are you, anyway?

I guess it’s Netscape 7 I’m using that is the reason I see no screen captures, right?
