I just noticed this on the Internet Explorer Webpage
http://www.microsoft.com/unix/ie/default.asp

So they've released Internet Explorer for Unix? Interesting

ROFL!!

People use UNIX because they want to run from the M$ empire. And now M$ is chasing them into the UNIX world.

You think it's open source? lol!

They have been working on that in cooperation with Corel for a while now.

It's certainly not a bad thing. I use Linux on all my servers, but I would love to have IE on them as well. The linux and unix built in browsers are nothing compared to internet explorer.

Yes, IE has been available on Unix for a while, but as far as I know, it won't work on any version of Linux.

I had a freind who liked Linux, not because he hated Microsoft, but because he liked tweaking the system.

He wanted IE for Linux.

Internet Explorer has been available for Unix operating systems since version 3.0. Also Microsoft will compile a corporate version of Internet Explorer for any operating system that is requested.

I have seen it run on Unix and AS/400 OSes. I guess the request for Linux hasn't come about because most companies that use it as their primary network OS used to not have money to spend. We'll see how that goes now that times are changing.

Why would you want to use IE for Linux when you have perfectly good alternatives like Mozilla and Netscape. Flame if you want, they are really good, solid browsers.

I used to think that IE was the best out there until I met Mozilla, and bam, I realized that IE is not the most solid best browser out there.
