Thats very sporty of Microsoft. And many of us were probably hoping for the damn IE to get out of any Windows OS. Firefox is just so cool.

Good job Microsoft, I am actually surprised by this move. Seems they are taking one step forward with the consumer, not two steps back.
Its a surprise package from Microsoft point of view,.....at least it will benefit common user in this fight
Now, that’s great news. Isn’t is a first in this kind of spiritedness in corporate behaviour?

It is about time no doubt. FireFox is becoming more and more the primary browser to many people, and with the release of FireFox 3 today we can only assume its popularity will go wider.
It is good to see Microsoft is actually listening to what people are saying,as Taylor said in his comment ”...taking one step forward with the consumer, not two steps back. ”
