Easy enough for you to prove me wrong

Navigate to http://www.apple.com/html5/ with anything other than Safari, click on any of the HTML5 Showcase items, and the result you get will either prove you right or it will prove me right. The message I get is:
Youll need to download Safari to view this demo.
This demo was designed with the latest web standards supported by Safari. If youd like to experience this demo, simply download Safari. Its free for Mac and PC, and it only takes a few minutes.

Some standard !!!

I stand by what I said, HTML5 is not a standard, it is whatever the browser makers want it to be. And my opinion hasn't changed in the least because, unlike you, I don't have a sick emotional attachment to the multi-national, multi-billion $$$/year mega-corporation that happens to sell me some of the products that I use. I don't have a double standard. You do though.

PS I went to MS's HTML5 demo website with Chrome and from what I saw, things actually did work well. So it would appear that if HTML5 is a standard, MS is doing a better job of writing cross browser HTML5 standard websites than Apple is. Suck on that. happy
