Microsoft had the chance and the money to build something way beyond everything else.

Nice to see Opera mentioned, but not recommended.

Comparing default installations Opera is, in my opinion, the most feature rich and usable. It makes excellt use of tabs, mouse gestures, keyboard short cuts and accesskey navigationm, built in e-mail and RSS client, an excellent zooming tool, the list goes on. Add to that the fact that on each installation of Firefox pages render slower than in Opera.

And, Opera passes the ACID2 test with flying colors. Both from developers and a uses stand-point it's a mystery why Opera has such a small amount of the browser market.

Oh, and it seems IE7 still doesn't support application/xhtml+xml last I checked. So still no XHTML support. Nice, another 7 years of XHTML (wrongly) used as HTML. So much for progressing forward.
