Yes. But Bill Gates and Steve Ballmer don't have much to do with Safari
working fine with Turbotax.com and Konqueror not working with it as the
previous poster said. They are the same rendering engine an Apple has
returned it's changes to the KDE developers. But then again I've noticed
that Konq screws up while trying to display the CSS used by livejournal
while Safari has no issues with this. Even Konq 3.2 can't do them
correctly. *shrug* But this is one time when Microsoft and it's upper
management have nothing to do with the issue. :(
