Business Cases

[kneeshooter]

Dear Lazyweb,

I have to write business cases as to why I can have decent, modern browsers on my work PC. Any good ideas how I can justify wanting IE7 and FF2?

It's terrible to say it, but an element of ICT freedom is very important to me in a job. Where's a good place to find a new one?

Love Simon

Any good references? Both browsers offer better security models - but I guess one argument could be we have corp firewalls etc. in place.

Yeah - of course I meant to include "content control" in the etc. but they're pretty rubbish and reactive.

People who want business cases will generally be satistfied with something like "because the paradigm has more synergy".

Yes - you put on a Terminator accent and say
"Giive mee Eye-Ee-Seven, Ef-Ef-Two and your moh-tore-cy-cle"

Umm... aren't they both free?

Any increase in functionality divided by 0 cost must be infinite delight.

I speak of FF of course, YMMV as far as Intaweb Exploder Sleven goes.
I have IE6 and IE7 (different boxes) for testing. Yeah wotevah!
