I use it as my main browser, and it's as standards-compliant 
as anything else out there and more so than some. (In the 
case of CSS, the standard itself isn't always as clear as it 
could be.) They care about compliance, and if you do catch 
them out I'm sure they'd appreciate a bug report. :-)

Nets 4.78 is ancient, creaking and almost certainly in the 
wrong.  It was launched at the height of the Browser Wars, 
CSS was a key battleground, and there's debris and bomb 
craters everywhere (metaphor groans under excessive strain).

Will.
