i showed FF to my mom last fall, cause she saw me browsing the internet one time and she was amazed at how there were zero popups or advertisements.

she has used FF ever since

It seems that the morons of the interbutts are slowly but surely migrating to Firefox.

Yup, which is odd since IE is the worst browser known, but some people are happy with it.

What about open source OSes, tried any of them?

Or alternative, people are forced to use IE. I'm sitting here at work and IE 6.0 is the only choice I have. I'd ditch it in a second if I had the oppertunity. You can bet that at home I use something else.

People don't know there are alternatives. They think a word processor is Word, and the Internet is Internet Explorer.

That's a true case with a lot of people. Some don't even know what Windows is, let alone know that there is an alternative to it.

Bet your ass. Nothing like using a shitty, dumbed down version of IE6 for the stupid fucks at school, and not even being able to use the full screen mode I bet if our tech guys were any smarter, they'd use Firefox, but then I'd bitch about how mine doesn't work or look like this, blah blah blah, then all the idiots are gonna say "omfg firefox is l33t lets totally switch" and then I have 79 dumbfucks on my front step who want to know where to go "to make my firefox l00k pimp".

Man, I could bitch about anything.
