Hmm. I thought Microsoft looked stupid for integrating presentation
information directly with the markup rather than accepting what I see as
a much more manageable CSS-based approach.
Oh well. Guess they weren't going to please everyone anyway, and it's

what to do with CSS, despite it's having been the original
differentiator between IE and Netscape.
