IV- Standards-based Apps(-7) at Proprietary Apps: In a battle in the same division as IE browser as tussle, applications to built to work well in many platforms and to conform the standards go against the well-established products that work with only one operating system such as Windows, or one browser, such as IE. II- Just 10 years later, Bill Gates decided that the Web in The Internet werent all the important. (Luckily for him, Microsoft was able to turn on dime and pretend Gates comments were never uttered.) I- Twenty years ago, a little publication started out that billed itself as The Newsweekly of IBM system Microcomputers. That publication was PC Week, which, in 2000, becomes eWEEK. During the last two decades, weve sent our fair share innovations, successes, failures and revolutions in IT. But theres one thing that weve seen more of anything else: bad predictions III- Other browsers (-3) at the Internet Explorer: in an earlier column, I predicted that by early fall 2005, IEs market share would drop below 75 percent. I now think that 60 percent is more like it, what with all momentum on the side of Mozillas Firefox and with the Microsoft coaches trying to give the same away with the questionable moves (such as no new version of IE except on new operating systems). IE has been coasting on its reputation for years now, and its due for a fall. I m taking the other browsers the point on this one.
