IE7 Zen Garden

I saw this post on Robert Scoble’s blog and of course had to take a look.
Microsoft mocks up a CSS Zen Garden site… on MSDN… Duh. If IE7 actually was decent at CSS why didn’t Microsoft simple add an actual submission to the real ZenGarden?? I’d have to say the whole thing is lame.

Seems like Microsoft will never learn from their mistakes. Their ‘Zen Garden’ page works in IE 7 but not in IE 6 or Firefox. I don’t even see the point in testing it on the Mac. Why create pages for one browser? That methodology bit them in the ass before and looks as though it will bite them again.
and if you look at it with IE6 it is clear how crappy css support was, and still is for 99% of IE users.
Just to follow up on this – I saw this post this morning on Slashdot which has a bit more info on the CSS ‘fixes’ in IE7…
