Microsoft warns of IE7 lock-in with XP SP3

If you've been thinking about updating to XP SP3, stop to consider. The "bonus" of updating is locking you into IE7, if you already have it installed. Should you need to roll back to IE 6, for example to do some testing, you'll be out of luck.

Also, there's a warning for those of us who have installed the beta of IE8. It seems that there's a possibility of "instability problems."

I'm soooo sure this has nothing to do with the fact that the numbers for IE7 have been, to put it mildly, unimpressive.

Not sure about you, but this does not leave me feeling all warm and fuzzy.

Mozilla says Firefox 3 ready for prime-time
I totally agree!

I've been using the various betas of FX3 for some time now, and it has been amazingly stable on my systems. I think people will be very happy with this - the speed alone is a welcome improvement!

There are still a number of add-ons that have not been updated, but I wouldn't expect that to take too long to address. Well done, Mozilla!

Are we there yet?
Testing the site on the new host, I hope!

[Update: Sweet, looks like we're back 'on the air!']

[Updated update: Ok, we're back, but there are some things that need to be tweaked. As always, the web is a work-in-progress, eh?]

Still working...getting closer...
