it's a slightly braver new world: no more ie for mac
We knew it was coming, now the time has officially arrived. IE5 for the Mac is no more. Internet Explorer 5 for Mac: Microsoft will end support for Internet Explorer for Mac on December 31st, 2005, and will provide no further security or performance updates. ... It is recommended that Macintosh users migrate to more recent web browsing technologies such as Apple's Safari.
Please listen, IE/Mac users: even Microsoft is recommending Safari. Please, stop using IE. It may have been a leader once, but those days are long gone. It's old and very, very busted. Let it rest now. OK?
Labels: browsers, ie, old browsers

Does anyone actually use IE/Mac for day-to-day browsing any more? I use it to test from time to time, but I can't think of a single person who still uses it as their default browser.
I know everyone slags it off now as being a bit of a dud, but IE 5/Mac was the broswer that gave us all hope that one day we might actually be able to use standards do do Really Cool Shit, so I guess we should be a bit thankful for it (and thanks to Tantek!).
But you're right -- it's time to let go.
