Microsoft Feels the Heat

I've opined in earlier postings that I generally like Microsoft and its products. One big exception though is Internet Explorer. Sure, I really liked it when it out-featured an anemic Netscape 4 or 5 years ago. Since then, though -- nothing. In the last year, Mozilla has jumped to the forefront, featureswise, with its FireFox browser (which I am using to prepare this post). Now comes word that Microsoft may relent and release new features (if not a full version increase) to IE before the release of Longhorn next year (???). See what I mean about competition being good for everyone?
