I was thinking of getting some mousepads made with a picture if Internet Explorer 6 on them. Maybe something like this:

Would anybody on here be interested in getting some in bulk at a low price of $39.99 apiece?

39.99 is not a good price for an old school mouse mat!

But these are premium mousepads. $9.99 won't even buy you a piece of tarp to track your mouse on. These are genuine performance mouspads handcrafted with exquisite care in eastern Asia.

We just finally got rid of IE6 at work only half a year ago -- if I turn up with this pad at work I will most certainly be battered to death with disgusting Dell rubberdome keyboards.

So -- no thanks.

39.99 for a typical mousepad? hmm not so sure

Couldn't I just use http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=44490.0 and get one for 99 cents?

You need to stand up for what's right, and that may not always be what everybody else is doing. Express your true taste in Internet Explorer with this award-winning mouse-pad technology!

This is not a typical mousepad. It has a beautiful picture of Microsoft Internet Explorer on it. Now how often do you see THAT?

Please shrink the IE Logo down to a smaller size and place it to the bottom left of the mouse pad. I'll buy at least 2 of them then.

I always hated having any logos on my pad due to it being unnecessary. In fact I avoid Razer pads due to their foul looking graphics plastered all over their surface.

Also what type of pad are you organizing please see if you can get a flat, smooth, polycarbonate surface (if that's possible)?

microsoft windows · « **Reply #15 on:** Wed, 30 October 2013, 16:30:01 »

I can't shrink the Internet Explorer logo! That logo needs to be as big as can be so that everybody in the office will know that you take pride in using the Internet.

AKmalamute · « **Reply #16 on:** Wed, 30 October 2013, 16:41:48 »

I'd like to post in this thread.

To express a lack of interest.

IE6 installs about nine million registry entries upon initial install (counted by a relative who worked for a large (but still local) ISP's phone support dept). If you choose to uninstall, it removes six of them.

Not six million, 6. Six registry entries out of nine million.

Beaten with Dell rubberdomes, indeed Halvar.

microsoft windows · « **Reply #17 on:** Fri, 01 November 2013, 09:35:26 »

What does that have to do with putting IE6 on a mousepad? Mousepads don't have registries.

I just spent like $3 for nice quality, thick neopreme custom mousepads. Windows is just smoking crack again.

You may have spent only $3 for a mousepad, but did that mousepad have the Internet Explorer logo on it? I think not! You need to get ready for the future of multimedia integration and internet communication by buying one of these mousepads.

No, it had a picture of myself and my wife. I'd much rather look at her than IE.

Can we see some Netscape mousepads please? IE is only my second-most used browser.

If the material is similar in texture and finish to a Roccat Hiro 3D pad, then I'll buy at least 5 of them. Of course having choice of either Firefox, Netscape and Google (forgot name of their browser) will guarantee more customers.

Because I get the feeling that IE is universally hated amongst MOST people here on this Forum. I personally have never used IE in my browsing or purchasing needs on the internet, hence don't get too enthused on IE's ability to attract any further interest here.

Why IE6 is bad:
Any version of windows that will run IE6 is end of life and is no longer receiving security patches.
This mouse-pad is like putting a target on your desk that says please hack me.

That's not true. You would not attempt to break into a computer that you perceive to be old and therefore has no value. You would of course go for that brand new spanking new shiny computer first.

That's why nobody targets lenovos. They're too retro.
Jokes aside.
