Tristan, thank you. Sorry I got the number wrong – but I’m sure I heard it from some reputable source, or a blog… can’t remember. Even 20% is an amazing achievement for a non-OEM browser from a non-monopolist (which I didn’t even mention in my post).
And to Sebastien, I’m actually willing to ignore Microsoft’s underlying motivation for developing IE7. It’s pretty clear that they saw their market share eroding, and eroding quickly. I’m OK with that. We finally have competition in the browser market again, which will mean more rapid innovation, which, as long as it’s based on implementing standards, I’m ecstatic about.
