Interesting little post

This interesting little post at the Download-Firefox blog points out that IE and Firefox are not all that different:

The similarity between Microsoft's Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox indicates the extent of popularity of Microsoft's Internet Explorer in the world today. Mozilla Firefox could have boldly assigned the lower portion of the window to toolbars and taskbars. However, all of us have become so habituated to the Internet Explorer's layout that Mozilla Firefox found the risk of bringing the taskbars down as a risk that was too dangerous to take.
