Default [giz] Microsoft Mistakes Browser War for Browser Party, Sends Firefox a Lovely Cake
Quote:


Just like they did when Firefox 2 dropped, Microsoft has sent the guys over at Mozilla a congratulatory cake. The nerd food was delivered in person and was graciously accepted by the Firefox crew, who managed to hold back snide remarks about the cake's standard compliance and proprietary recipe long enough to take a few pictures. At least Microsoft has a sense of humor about their eroding market share.

Who wants a slice of IE's market share?
