Unsupported Browser
I never knew that browsing with an unsupported browser was such a critical issue… Taking into account that I’m using the browser equivalent of the latest Ferrari such a message becomes even more stupifying.
Sorry sir, our roads are simply not compatible with that nice and shiny vehicle of yours.
Hmmm. Let me see. Don’t support a browser that has been released mere days ago. But if I take the 10-yr old bug ridden IE v6 for a spin around these parts I would have no issues? Of course I can use the site just fine with Opera—so the message is completely useless and a mere nuisance at best. And here I was, thinking that we were starting to come to terms with web standards.
But then again, such a dubious site as the RipOff Report surely is only a mere outpost on the World Wild Web. The further you remove yourself from the buzzing hive in the centre, the harder it gets to properly maintain an infrastructure…
