Charles Lindsey Posted February 18, 2003 Report Posted February 18, 2003 Yahoo news article provided by Reuters internet report. quote: When Opera users visit Microsoft's MSN site (http://www.msn.com/) with the new browser, the text displayed there appears to them in a language mimicking that of the Swedish chef on the popular "Muppet Show," Opera said in a statement. "This joke is for real," Opera's chief technology officer Haakon Wium Lie told Reuters. Opera calls its new browser the "Bork edition" after the "Bork, Bork, Bork!" sound made by the Swedish chef Muppet. In the chef's mock Swedish, the MSN site headline "Weekend movie guide" is rendered "Veekend mufeee-a gooeede-a" and "Looking for a new car?" is "Luukeeng fur a noo cer?" to Opera browser users. Snip... article continues... That's just terrible! (snickers) Apologies to anyone offended.
