So many folk ask me why I refuse to use IE7 as the default browser on my laptop, and why I've tried to optimise this blog for Firefox.

Well, it's been said that a picture's worth a thousand words, so here are 3000 such words for those folk; a set of three screenshots of the sidebar here as seen by three common browsers, only one of which insists on reading the page-code while wearing a blindfold.

NOW try telling me that IE7 is brilliant!

It's not. It's clearly crap. If you can't see that, there's no hope for you.

Left to right: Firefox 3.0.3, Safari 3.1.2, IE7
