Easy for them to laugh - they don't have implement IE6 workarounds.
I had to implement an IE8 workaround when I worked at Microsoft, does that count?

Yeah, I'm pretty sure Microsoft is full of great people, it's just that crazy CEO of theirs.
And that damn web browser they make. (I make a web site. It works great in every browser I try... until I open it in Internet Explorer, where it's all messed up. This is not an isolated incident.)
I still think buying Opera, and adopting/adapting would be a good thing for Microsoft. It would give them a major playing hand in the mobile browser market too. From Opera's perspective, they might gain a lot of users overnight, which may or may not be a good thing. But i do think Opera as a browser is the neatest, most feature-rich and yet unbloated piece of software i've seen. And they deserve a bigger desktop mark…
I really don't see the reason for them to acuire Opera. They should calm their egos and just use Webkit like Google and Apple do instead of wasting innumerable resources on new layout and rendering engine for IE8/IE9.

I interned there last summer. You're going to have a blast. What team are you going to be on?
SQL Server. It sounds great -- I can't wait.

Do IE developers at MSFT just suck really bad or they don't care? I am interested to know how can they fail so bad when much smaller team of developers like Opera does it so well.
