TimBray recounts his CSS hell, and ties it to discussions involving Dave Winer and Robert Scoble on whether MsIE is "dead".
I perceive Robert Scoble as now being a "flack". I won't be giving too much sympathy to him or other "good Micro Soft-ians".
Thankfully my aging LapTop still runs [OK] on Win98, so I don't have to deal with WinXP yet. It's my hope to switch to LinuxOS or MacOsX instead. When I was at Axiom Legal we bought our stuff in the last days of [Win2K], thus avoiding [XP]. Unfortunately we bought into the whole Ms Exchange nightmare, but I won't make that mistake again. I'm using MozIlla instead of MsIE and Ms Outlook; I look forward to switching to OSAF/Chandler (with MozIlla's Gecko rendering). I'm glad that WebLog templates have encourage simple-enough design to reduce the impact of CSS hell, but I'm buying Jeffrey Zeldman's book to help me through it. I'm using Open Office on the rare occasion I need such Ms Office-type documents. And I'm hoping to help move forward along a Boot Strapping Collaboration Roadmap.
