I know it's supposed to be funny and all, but considering firefox add-ons are optional, it kinda fails.

It also disqualifies Opera for the cardinal sin of 'looking weird', with which it generalizes that everyone thinks that.

I would surmise the person who made it uses Chrome and/or Safari.

I will like to mention that I will not support any IE browser below 7.0. Heck, the company that I was working at during my work placement said that they even put a message for IE6 users on a lot of their websites stating that they do not support IE6 and lists a few browsers for the visitor to upgrade to.

oh please, I've gotten by on 28MB

I've never really supported IE6, and I actually have javascript on my page to bring up a nagbox if one's running IE6 or lower. I actually started developing in IE6 (my HS doesn't update their machines as far as I'm aware - for what I know they could be on windows 7 now or something!) but was quick to shift those testing/learning efforts over into Firefox.

...We were actually learning frames in that, too. I don't have any giant vendetta against them, but I'm not for using something mostly hated.

Frames are nice, if you got stuck somewhere in 1998.

About 2 years ago I had to renew some old web application written in sloppy HTML, with Visual Basic.NET on the backend, and a hell of a lot of Javascript. Pretty much all of that javascript resolved around controlling / directing an iFrame that was constantly in a part of the layout. Ugh. One of the scariest projects I've had up until now. The whole thing was practically built solely for Internet Explorer 6, too.
