I've known that Rob Enderle has had a bad reputation for some time. In most technology circles, people see him as being (a) a Microsoft shill; and (b) hopelessly inaccurate.

But his "review" of IE7 takes the cake. In the space of just 1200 words, Rob trots out the following doozies:

• "[E]xploits were written against the Mozilla based browsers. Viruses and phishing style attacks worked equally well..."
  Um ... what? Most flaws were theoretical and very rarely, if ever, exploited in practice. The Mozilla coding community has without exception responded quickly to address any flaws discovered. And let's not forget, without ActiveX support Mozilla instantly removes a large chunk of their exposure to security flaws.
• [Tabbed browsing] works very well in IE7 and new pages load in the background ..."
  This is news? Rob grudgingly says "Opera did this first" but implies that IE is now better and ignores Mozilla/Firefox browsers altogether.
• The one that really made me spit my coffee across the room was this: "IE7 actually seems to support JavaScript much better which probably is partially the result of the warming relationship (sort of) between Sun and Microsoft."
  Where to start? Sun has virtually nothing to do with JavaScript -- it was developed and implemented by Netscape and only called "JavaScript" to highlight its ability to talk with embedded Java applets. Nowadays, JavaScript is more properly called ECMAScript, with JavaScript 1.5 corresponding to the ECMA-262, 3rd edition standard ratified by ECMA International.
