Firefox May Soon Overtake IE In Europe 290

The two browsers are both within 1 point of 40% market share, IE above and Firefox below. Europeans are more crazy about Firefox than Americans: In Germany, Firefox has a 61% market share, while IE has only 25%. Google Chrome is, according to StatCounter, now above 10%. ConceivablyTech has more details, including market share data from both StatCounter and Net Applications (which as of this month is limiting its free data)."

Why in the world, now that we have gorgeous 400Hz LCD screens with amazing contrast and colors, would I want to go and ruin it by using a technology which makes images look worse? Not to mention the mandatory shaded glasses that absorb a good portion of the screen's light. I mean, seriously, who's buying it?!

I was hoping all the fuzz about it would be dead by now.. what is this, the third time they try to push this tech into the market? I sure hope this is another fail and the last at that!
