]]> Comment on Downfalls of IE6 Development | A Client Perspective by Kevan Hartford http://www.carsonshold.com/2011/01/downfalls-of-ie6/#comment-36 Kevan Hartford Fri, 28 Jan 2011 22:25:52 +0000 http://www.carsonshold.com/?p=382#comment-36 Unfortunately, what Michael has said is entirely correct. XP has been prevalent for so long that the e-security measure many companies have invested in are inherently tied to it and its components - including IE6. Upgrading will come, but not until it's economically beneficial to do so. Many businesses are working with securing Windows 7, as XP is no longer being officially supported by Microsoft (to my knowledge), though this is not an easy nor speedy process. That being said, the decision to upgrade on a large scale will come more quickly if web developers such as yourself refuse to develop for outdated systems. Unfortunately, that also leaves you open to losing business in the interim. I should also note that it's been my experience that company presidents and CEO's very much do use the same computer as the HR reps. The security requirements for executive positions can be enormous, given the sensitive and valuable information they handle on a daily basis. It's often the IT guys who use systems with differing configurations. Unfortunately, what Michael has said is entirely correct.

No matter what they come out with there is going to be some opposition, and they can only be hopeful that the design can withstand all of the criticism for the next five years.

I like the Rio logo, interesting to see if it still looks cool when I look at it again in 2016. :-) Olympic logo design is definitely a tough job, but considering the amount of time and money that goes into them outcomes like London 2012 just shouldn’t happen.
