Firefox Dreaming

Saturday, November 3, 2007

I’m on a mini vacation right now together with my family. We are in Cebu City and the only way to make a post for today is thru an internet café. I’m currently writing this in a place called Netopia, probably the most popular internet café franchise here in the Philippines.

There are about 30 computer cubicles here mostly occupied with people playing computer games. I think I am the only one who is surfing the web and using Microsoft Word at the same time. I feel sad right now, not because I’m using a Windows operating system; I do understand that most popular games are still made for Windows. I feel miserable and angry because they are still utilizing Internet Explorer for browsing the web and there’s no way to install Firefox.

I considered Netopia as a big company with probably plenty of good computer technicians and consultants, and it’s very depressing that they don’t know or still not using the best internet browser in the planet.

I just hope that the next time I’m coming back here I will see that fox logo on this crappy Windows desktop. I’m out.
