Well said, it is all down to personal preference from a users point of view. Richard's point is also true though. The
standards should be exactly that, the browser(s) should interperet the code the same.

This isn't any different to buying a car, we all have a personal preference to how big/small, fast/slow, etc. I don't agree with personal digs, just because of their preference. The all do the same job, some better than others.
The problem with Microsoft is not the products they build, but the methods they employ to "sell" them too you. Their domination of the software market has been largely based on their domination of the Operating System that most of us use, it's been a fantastic vehicle and platform for them to push more of their products. It's only been relatively recently that more people have become aware of the alternatives.
Lets not fight each other, we're human and fickle, keep it calm please
