I can still remember a time when, and it's still pretty recently, if you went to a website, you HAD to be using Internet Explorer with ActiveX. If you complained to your HR department that you can't see the PeopleSoft web page, they would look at you as if you had three heads and say, 'How can you see web pages without Internet Explorer??'

Heh.. little did they know that actual, honest-to-goodness, cross-platform web standards WOULD be important. Very important.
