rush_tech Posted March 1, 2010 Posted March 1, 2010 Sitting here watching the gadget show, goes to a break and a advert for IE I'm sure it not going the be the last advert I see for a browser....
Gatt Posted March 1, 2010 Posted March 1, 2010 I'm sure the EU wil rule that Microsoft are abusing their power for advertising IE
powdarrmonkey Posted March 1, 2010 Posted March 1, 2010 Indeed, this side of the pond the browser wars are only just beginning.
ahuxham Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 Indeed, this side of the pond the browser wars are only just beginning. First one to promote free beer or have hot women on the advert will win. I can see Microsofts angle as: Hot women using the browser and finding all she needs using bing, searching for lingerie and the likes.

ahuxham Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 isnt that what the inprivate mode is really for searching for women? Or when you don't want your girlfriend to find you looking at things you shouldn't I prefer chrome and Incognito.
Arcath Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 the problem is that most people dont know that there is a choice, and if they are aware of the choice they cba changing from IE.

All of the above - 5h1t happens when you p4rty n4k3d firefox , safari or opera here Appologies if the above statement is offensive - delete or edit if need be

localzuk Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 Sitting here watching the gadget show, goes to a break and a advert for IE I'm sure it not going the be the last advert I see for a browser.... We've got some billboards nearby with adverts for Chrome. Made me smile when I saw that.
Arcath Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 true but even if they did would they care for most people ir works well and to probably 70% of internet users it IS the internet and while i prefer firefox ive given up suggesting it to people as it can be like bashing your head against a brick wall i did suggest firefox to someone saying "install this it will be faster when you browse the net", a couple of weeks later he said that it hadnt made any difference, it turned out he had installed it and continued to use IE assuming that the speedyness would rub off.....

apoth0r Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 Saw quite a few Chrome billboards on the way down to BETT, think they had a billboard in my home town too
