No excuse for treating Firefox as second class in Sharepoint 2007

I noticed today that Sharepoint 2007 will treat Firefox as a down-level browser. That means no spiffy AJAX junk or no rich text editing.

You've got to be kidding me.

I'm sitting here blogging in Firefox on Community Server. It seems to do all of that just fine. You know why I don't use Sharepoint? Because I don't want to be tied to IE, or even Windows for that matter (I use my Mac for everything but Visual Studio work).

Every time Microsoft is doing something cool (like Xbox 360 or Visual Studio Express), they do something that's crap like this. As Kevin says, this is a solved problem.
