"What Google does not want is Microsoft creating a browser that sucks.
Actually, Google doesn't mind if Microsoft's browser sucks. What they
really don't want is Microsoft to make a browser that sucks and
everyone ends up using it. And, if the IE8 beta shows us anything,
making a really sucky web browser is Microsoft's true ambition.
"Google's main concern is quite simple: Browsers should render pages
accurately, and the JavaScript engine in the browser should be fast,
efficient, and bug free. On both counts, IE8 is an abomination.
JScript just doesn't behave very well and is buggy. And, IE's page-
rendering engine simply does not follow the standard. Because of this,
Google has to keep development on their Google Applications quite
generic and simply cannot implement the features they want. You'll
also notice that Microsoft recently has been putting on some very
compelling web content that is only available if you use Windows and
IE."
