That's a nice gesture :)

The cake is people!! It's peopleeeeeeeeeeeeee.

Was that cake professional edition of home edition?

I reckon they probably use Firefox to browse the net in the I.E office. They were probably just as excited about version 3 as anyone else.

this seems like a "trojan horse"!

I bet it was poisoned.

Microsoft did something nice! Quick, mock them relentlessly, for they are not Sony and thus every action they take is worthy of scorn!

M$ trying to pretend they aren't getting their asses handed to them. crap programmers over there. Firefox CRUSHES IE.

IE Cake 2.0.1

think they should sent the pro edition, that looks like Home edition.

Cool thing is this cake is a sign they are fully aware that they have competition and they are under fire for each failed IE.

FF needs to be advertised more. Outside the net.

how do i download the f***ing flashplayer add on/plugin for this
if i download and install there is no effect on firefox 3.0. i cant run youtube. if i say download plugin then it says there is no plugin now.
can someone give me the link because i liked firefox 3.0 but because of not running the youtube or gametrailers i switched back to 2.0.
thanx

this is the only nice thing i have ever heard M$ do, congrats to mozilla btw

Did Microsoft kindly supply the Mozilla team with an extended warranty for the cake?

Something else thats not compatible with Vista...Well its like everything else they make..

MS handing out cake to Mozilla? Oh dear...let's hope the cake wasn't laced with evil things that could lead to food poisoning. o_o

I LOVE Mozilla Firefox. It's a kick ass browser.

would probably freeze in your mouth.

Well, what are we Americans without our sense of humor right? Not much on MS, but this is something that I would do for sure.

Long Live Smarta$$es!!!! :)

POISON!!! DONT EAT THE CAKE I LUV MOZILLA

so i guess the cake is not a lie......

LAWL

Even though it was nice of them to send Mozilla a cake, i would personally love it if Mozilla sent back to Microsoft a parcel containing a rabid fox that's infested with fleas and ticks and crap, and when they open the parcel the fox just lunges out like a jack-in-a-box and then mauls Shane Kim's face off and gives him rabies; i don't know why Shane Kim is in the IE teams office, he's probably talking them to death about fish and then the fox runs across the office corridor and literally fleas and multi-disaesed infested crud flies from its claws into their eyeballs and they scream AAAH!!AAAH!!AAAAHH!!1! AND Then they're like zomg punch the fox in its face it is teh only way to own a fox but then the fox maces them and steals their pens and runs out the office and mozzila never recieves a cake from microsoft again.

That is really a nice gesture, I mean, there is really no need for a gesture AT ALL... it´s not like we hear companies sending cakes or gifts to each other everytime they release a new console/software/whatever.

I´m sure still trying to find the evil in it, being microsoft and all...
;P

like mozilla can have their cake and eat it, badom bom bachch

you guys are amazing.
It was only a joke.
All of you guys diss the cake making fun of MSFT and I just do the same, just a joke and make fun of your beloved Sony and you guys throw a tantrum.

What is wrong with you people ? Why does the humour have to be ONLY one way on N4G : Of course "bash MSFT" way.

When 360 owners like sillelek complain you guys say "cheer up , its only a joke" , looks like you guys dont even take your own advice.

Really surprised my joke offended you guys :(

Red Layers of Death

Quick ship it back to Mesquite Texas before the warranty runs out!

that cake someway malfunctions in some way...because you know how M$ cant finish sh!t, it has a a beautiful outside design, but the inside is crap (Vista, 360, Zune, should i go on?)

No no Mozilla, don't eat the cake, it's full of poison!

Yeah, IE sucks, I think Microcrap should just get over it that they lost. IE gets so many viruses. With its active x control. Firefox just owns. Theirs no point to keep making new versions of IE. No one uses it anymore, except old people who don't know much about computers. Lots of computer company's are now starting to ship firefox preinstalled on their computers, I think hp already started. They just started to know firefox kills IE in so many ways, speed, safety,looks, customization, everything. Bye bye microcrap, you lost your dominance in the web browser business :)

hmm, sony should be expecting a cake from MS after the holidays...

that's nice of Microsoft! if only everyone is like that.

If only the gaming industry was this supportive...

The cake probably contains a cheque for a bout billion dollars and instrucutions that say "Close down ur company"

Once Mozilla takes over, you will all hate that too...because it's popular. You can't stand to see something win for that long. The same goes with Sony...you wanted to see the underdog win, so you bought a 360.

With IE icon seems a bit like a kick in the face IMO... Then again its the IE team so they have to be usd to takig abeating

i hope the cake doesn't rrod
