A close friend of mine has informed me of Microsoft’s acquisition of Mozilla Firefox. Personally, I was disappointed with this because our favorite browser is now part of the software giant.
But on a bright side, it would benefit consumers in the long run because
MS’s own Internet Explorer has been the worse internet browser and acquiring the best browser available is the best move.
My quote for this: “If can’t beat ’em, buy ’em.”
