So IE6 it is.

Yes, let's all use Webkit. Much better....... Later edit : Multiple implementations of a standard is a good thing.
I agree, as long as they are by companies, organizations, and teams other than Microsoft. And that's what we indeed have already: Gecko, WebKit, Blink (and Blink is new, which is great). I very much look forward to additional open engines (and POSIX-compliant operating systems, for that matter) by companies, organizations, and even unofficial teams of dedicated individuals that are not Microsoft, of which there are many.
If IE was an issue for users, pretty sure that means they'll continue to use Firefox or Chrome, not Spartan.
I wonder if they're gonna go with Webkit. There was some speculation that the "new" MSFT would be going that route.

Except that is hardly the case.Competition is good,that's what forced IE to evolve as it was losing marketshares. But let's not kid ourself thinking all the players are in it for web standards.

Because IE supremacy used to be better...

For a developer's perspective being able to write once and have it work everywhere is pretty darn big "pro". What are the practical "cons" that outweigh this?
