The idea of a two browser scenario is plain stupid. Firefox cannot be defeated
As on date, the Internet Explorer web browsing software application has captured close to 75 % of the web browsing software application market. The Firefox web browsing software application has a market share of 15 % while the Safari, Opera and other web browsing software applications constitute 10 % of the market.
Steve Jobs is of the opinion that the Firefox web browsing software application and other web browsing software applications will be wiped out of from the market after the release of the Safari web browsing software application for the Personal Computers segment.
The charts presented by Steve Jobs indicated that he anticipated a scenario where the Internet Explorer web browsing software application would continue to maintain its 75% market share while the Safari web browsing software application would dominate the remaining 25 % of the market.
Steve Jobs was of the opinion that the two web browsing software applications would be the only two web browsing software applications left in the market. The fact that a person as respectable as Steve Jobs has equated the Firefox web browsing software application to a web browser that can be overtaken by just about the any new web browsing software application that enters the market is a very sad thing indeed.
The success of the Firefox web browsing software application has been built on sheer dedication and commitment towards excellence. The Firefox web browsing software application entered the web browsing market at a time when the end users were compelled to make use of whatever they could lay their hands on.
The Firefox web browsing software application was the web browser that turned the tide and shifted the balance of her power in the favor of the end users. The Firefox web browsing software application was the first web browser that gave control and independence in the hands of the end users.
The fact that the Safari web browsing software application is bold enough to enter the web browsing software application market in the Personal Computers segment is proof of the success of the Firefox web browsing software application.
When the Internet Explorer web browsing software application had a stranglehold on the market and when nine out of ten computers on the internet ran on the Internet Explorer web browsing software application, it was the Firefox web browsing software application that was a bold enough to enter the market and challenge the dominance of the main web browser.
The Firefox web browsing software application has successfully demolished the dominance of the Internet Explorer web browsing software application. The success of the Firefox web browsing software application is not something that can be attributed to sheer luck or chance.
Nor can it be attributed to underhanded tricks like bundling the software application with the operating system, which the Microsoft’s Internet Explorer web browsing software application did or by combining the web browsing software application with another device, which Apple is doing.
In such a scenario, the fact that the competitors of the Firefox web browsing software application want us to believe that the Firefox web browsing software application can be simply dismissed from the web browser market is very difficult to believe. In my opinion, the Firefox web browsing software application does not have any reason to worry.
In my opinion, it is the Safari web browsing software application and the Microsoft’s Internet Explorer web browsing software application that must worry for their market share. The Safari web browsing software application must worry for its survival while Microsoft’s Internet Explorer web browsing software application must worry for the maintenance of its market share.
