I’m not sure many people are going to notice.

Personally, I liked my first reading of the headline:

“Microsoft ending support for Internet”

:) :) :)

So use IE for AirCanada.com, it still exists! Fortunately MS do not have the power to wipe things out of existence by power of will alone. Yet.

It’s mostly intranet stuff for work… That could be an issue, although Firefox covers just about everything now.

LOL

I dragged IE to the trash a long time ago.

I prefer Safari and occassionally Firefox.
