off the Hook - 911s Chief Lotu...

Today I decided to upgrade from Firefox 2 to Firefox 3 as I have heard that at least one strength is faster page loading, which is always good. I have used Firefox for absolutely all web browsing for at least the past 6 months EXCEPT for (perhaps most ironically) the online IBM Business Partner tools that I have to use and require Internet Explorer. But I digress.

The inspiration for this blog entry was that when I went do download Firefox 3 from www.firefox.com wiith Firefox 2, I was presented with a nice 4 step process of how to download and install it with screen shots. What struck me is that steps 1 and 2 were screen shots that assumed I was using Internet Explorer to download it! OK, so maybe that's their target audience, but could they not at least detect that I am using a previous version of THEIR BROWSER and present me with instructions specific to that?

Sad; just sad.
