The case against Microsoft with the EU is very strong and I don't expect to see Microsoft to win it. Acid2 is just a start, a step in the right direction. There's a long way to go before anyone can say that "Microsoft is a browser vendor that ensures proper support for web standards in their products". Where's the support for SVG, XHTML? Is there any commitment to support (X)HTML5? And even if IE8 supports these other standards; when will it be released, and will IE8 be available on XP or just Vista? Or will it be unbundled from the windows OS altogether? Dean Edridge
