Internet Explorer's problems can be traced to Microsoft's shortsightedness during the browser wars of the 1990s. Is the company sowing tomorrow's security woes today?

The reason the airlines are a business disaster is that they don't have a clear pricing structure that would allow them to make a profit. Safety, fuel, schedules, labor all can be factored in to the cost of the seat, but what you have is a ridiculous flex rate designed to capture the most money from those who fly on short notice.

As to IE, Firefox works fine for me. There is something sick about Microsoft's obsessive desire to own every market. Imagine the world with a benevolent Microsoft. Would their profits drop if they weren't as paranoid? They need to start building better mousetraps and perhaps they could change their image from malignant to benign
