Is it true?

I sure the heck hope this is true, and not some cruel joke :). The articles states:

Microsoft Corporation (Nasdaq: MSFT) announced yesterday that the next release of Internet Explorer will use Gecko as its rendering engine.

If it is true, is it the start of another browser monopoly? My guess is it's an April Fool's joke of course :)

Anytime you see a URL with a @ in it, be wary, becasue everything before the @ will be dropped. If you go to jsut the IP address that is after the @ you'll see that it goes to Fakednews.com. And that not it matters too much, but News.com doesn't use .php pages. What a sucker, sheesh.

The grammar errors should also make you suspect an april fools joke... the writing is pretty poor for a supposedly professional news org.
