    @blyan-reloaded: I have a TiVo HD hooked up to an antenna, no cable at all. I get all of the local channels, in HD, and only pay $13/mo. It's not worth it for me to pay for cable especially HD cable.

    One major problem with IE is the technology support fragmentation. IE 6 requires CSS hacks. IE7 has it's own set of CSS hacks. IE8 is getting close, but little or no HTML 5 support.
