Ignorant or inept?

Take <A HREF="http://www.powergen.co.uk/" title="powergen.co.uk"> www.powergen.co.uk </a powergen.co.uk>. The site supports Netscape 7, and claims to work with Opera and Konqueror, yet it doesn't recognize Firefox. Firefox is seens as Netscape 1.0.

Pathetic.

The site would support Firefox, but the developer either hasn't kept up to date with technology, or is inept.

Another point, would you trust a company that doesn't keep up to date with Web technology with your personal details? It's not just the developer to blame, but the company that hired the developer. If the company doing the hiring hasn't got a clue, doesn't it make you wonder what condition its servers are in?
