Heh.

The Recommended Requirements for Firefox are much worse:

Recommended:
Pentium III 500 MHz CPU
128 MB of RAM
Windows XP

OH NOOOOOOO. You mean I have to have at least a P3?? OH NOOOES.

If you don't already have a p3, please, go spend the 30 dollars, and upgrade.

Sure there are a lot of myths out there, and a lot of things that people believe that are wrong. Firefox isn't necessarily better on all counts (Firefox2 used nearly as much memory as Windows does just to run). However two things that keep me using it, over Exploder, and always will as long as it stays this way;

1) Better W3C support. Period. They have always been ahead of IE on supporting recommendations and drafts.

2) You have the free choice to use Firefox or not. If you run Windows, you don't have the choice whether or not you want to have Exploder.
