[WSG] Make em' pay for IE

[Mordechai Peller]

If you try to complain about IE to a client, they'll most likely say 
that that's our problem. The truth is, since they are paying the bill, 
it's their problem. It seems that the only way to get truth through to 
them is to include in the invoice: "Corrections To Make IE Compatible." 
If they say that we should therefor forget about the other browsers, 
just tell them even if we did that, there would be no time savings 
because we would still need to compensate  for IE's bugginess. Top it 
off by offering to throw in for free some bell and whistles which IE 
doesn't support.

This should do two things:
1) Make people aware that 100% IE support will cost them money. (But 
don't compromise on one bit of functionality, just some polish.)

2) By creating a difference between IE and compliant browsers, people 
will begin to realize that there is a difference.

Will this mean the end of IE dominance? I doubt it. It may however lead 
to the end of IE's super-dominance, which should be good enough.
