- Google gets more aggressive than Microsoft at moving users off IE 6
- Could be a great product, and a great way for companies to keep IE6 forcompatibility reasons, but, pack a modern browser for modern websites. And, for all those users that still think that IE is the Internet, adding a Google plugin might just be the easiest way to get them...

- Benchmarking Firefox 3.5Benchmarking Firefox 3.5Any reason you chose to benchmark 3.0.5 instead of 3.0.11? Not a gripe, just curious.
