Microsoft's Mac Internet Explorer [MacIE] used to be my favorite browser. I used it all the time and ensured that all of my interfaces and site pages worked with this browser.

Mac IE About Information

Microsoft discontinued support for MacIE in December 2005, however I continued to make a concerted effort to ensure my tools and sites worked with the browser until about 2008. I stopped using and checking for MacIE browser errors-- because at the time new sites being developed or enhanced would not work with the browser.

That said- I did ensure new or updated Java Applets I wrote would work with the browser-- however this was more a function of the older Mac operating system-- rather than specific to the MacIE browser itself.

So why would I spend all day Sunday [yesterday], changing existing interfaces on WiredPages to ensure they work with the browser-- as evidenced by the following MacIE browser screenshots showing WiredPages interfaces?

WiredPages BMI on Health Page

WiredPages Best Sellers on Libraries Page

WiredPages CNET Reviews on Technology Page

Because I could fix my Web 2.0 like interfaces to work with this "old" browser [MacIE], unlike most AJax and JQuery interface developers. Also, WiredPages is a useful school site... There maybe a couple of MacIE browsers still around. Mine is.
