Nice… I’m going to refrain from adding to the massive compilation of IE jokes, and just be happy that the cake made it on time for it’s expected delivery date. For once, microsoft delivered something on time. Ain’t that something?…

Maybe the cake is more useful than the browser! (or, perhaps, are there any worms inside the cake as well as the browser?!)
Make a “HCCP” control and you will get the response :D

I hate firefox. i also hate internet explorer. i hate safari. i hate avant browser. The best browsers currently available are SeaMonkey and Netscape navigator > which sadly is not alive anymore. The cake has a bomb in it. it will go off when internet explorer 8 is released. I downloaded internet explorer 8 beta to see if they changed anything. they didn’t same ol’IE.

It is probably a genuine gesture. After all, if it weren’t for Firefox’s successes, the world would still be stuck with the tired IE6. There wouldn’t be an IE Team - or version IE7 or the upcoming IE8. So the success of Firefox is probably job-security for the IE team. They have a lot to be thankful for :-)

It’s neat how they can make the ring around ‘e’ stand! I’d ask how, but I fear the cake is not open source :P

Great sense of humour, that cake is obviously a lie!
