This is not the reason web designers "hate" Microsoft. The Acid 2 test
doesn't test anything the vast majority of web designers use. It's largely
about esoteric parts of the specification, and it includes invalid and
illegal code for negative tests (something no web designer would care
about).
Web designers love to wave Acid 2 around simply because they think passing
Acid 2 means a browser is fully standards compliant, which is not what it
means at all.
