Latest Acid3 Results (Microsoft Be Concerned)

Today marks the release of Firefox 3.5, an exciting update to what is arguably the best browser on the market.  Since this is a release that focuses on new and emerging web technologies, I thought it’d be an opportune time for a quick checkpoint (via the Acid3 test) on the latest and greatest from each of the camps in the browser wars.

As you can see, Firefox, Chrome, and Safari have a commanding, or rather, an embarrassingly distant lead over Internet Explorer 8, which scores a paltry 21/100.  Once again we ask: Microsft, where exactly are you getting your “facts” from?
