connect.microsoft.com — Microsoft Connect, home of Microsoft's betas including Vista has some interesting CSS values. The first line in the .css is commented "fix for the IE 1px-off margin error", followed by a value called ".StupidIEMarginHack ".

I'm sure that there are MS people unhappy with IE, but I bet lunch that that page/stylesheet was implemented by some poor contractor who might not even work in a MS owned building.

@barokThere is nothing stupid about Hating IE. In fact that is pretty much what every web developer does everytime he works on a project.

this one little nugget simply reminds me that ignorant businesses can succeed.*cough* *cough* WalMart *cough* *cough*it also reminds me that Firefox may not be quite up to its hype, but at least we have a superior option...*sigh*

Cuz we all believe that this isn't created by a *nix lover trying to bash Microsoft. Cuz we're all this gullable. There is no way a Microsoft employee would do this. It's career limiting. Especially since he/she would have to know it would get posted on a site like this. All I can say is NO DIGG.

The thing that amazes me is that the CSS file still hasn't been changed! The M$ peoples must not read digg. :)
