Victory - Microsoft discontinues Internet Explorer

Internet Explorer 7 logo During my daily routine of scouring the ‘interwebs’ for news, I came upon quite possibly the most important story of 2008.

According to BBspot, Microsoft announced that it is packing up and closing shop for it’s popular Internet Explorer project. This report comes after word last week that AOL has discontinued its Netscape Navigator browser.

“We made Internet Explorer with the sole purpose of destroying Netscape. That job is done. It was a long and hard-fought battle, but the better browser won,” said Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer. “What point is there now to having a browser product? We won WOOHOO”

Ballmer explained Microsoft’s strategy, “We’re not about dominating markets, we’re about eliminating markets for others,” he said.
