Microsofts Stance

• ACID2 Test
• Acid2 assumes basic support for HTML4, CSS1, PNG,
  and Data URLs.

Another Microoft Moment!

• "We will not pass this test (Acid2) when IE7
  ships. We fully recognize that IE is behind the
  game today in CSS support. We've dug through the
  Acid2 test and analyzed IE's problems with the
  test in some great detail, and we've made sure
  the bugs and features are on our list however,
  there are some fairly large and difficult
  features to implement, and they will not all sort
  to the top of the stack in IE7.
