Apparently I just found out how much Firefox is worth to me.
Ten thousand Australian dollars.
Microsoft has put out some bizarre kind of search contest where you can "find" AU$10,000 on the internet. Go here if interested.
It won't let you use Firefox (and presumably not Opera or Chrome, etc.) to perform the search.
Granted, I don't have the spare time to play the game. Nor do I use IE for much more than some work sites I need to use it for.
However, I really don't see where Microsoft thinks it's viable strategy is to insult a rival's better product while trying to bribe tech savvy customers to come back to it's flawed product.
Not to mention that Microsoft search has always sucked (though the new stuff apparently is *pretty*).
