Take this fascinating new study from a Canadian psychometric consulting company called AptiQuant. Appearing to have no relationship with the cosmetics of Mary Quant,
Canon EOS 7D 70-300MM Lens, these people still seem able to create a very pretty visage,
HP EliteBook 8560p XU063UT, one that will have us all talking to the second bottle.
(To be precise,
Sony PDW-530, those who use IE6 are bigger doofuses than those who use IE7. Oddly,
hp EB 8460P, though, those who use IE9 are dumber than those who use
IE8. Those who use IE8 are still dumber than those who use any other browser.)
Having enjoyed those two places, perhaps you might just decide to come here: 43 percent of browser users,
Canon XF-105, according to StatCounter,
Canon XHA1S, choose IE. Therefore,
Sony HDR-XR500V, almost half the world is very stupid indeed.
The first question seems to have no answer, so one assumes a clever person at AptiQuant thought: "Hey,
JVC GY HM700U, this will get written about, eh?" The second,
Panasonic AG HVX200A, however,
Dell Alienware M17x, does. AptiQuant offered free IQ tests to more than 100,000 people who happened to be online. There you have it. That was it.
So what browsers do the smarterati espouse? Well, in third place is IE with a Chrome frame. In second,
ASUS G73SW-XT1, Camino. And in first,
Toshiba Portege R700-S1332 PT311U-01202V, who else could it be but Opera?
Only then can you really savor the conclusions that can so easily be reached when one lot of numbers goes on a blind date with another.
For this piece of research declared that those who use Microsoft's fine Internet Explorer browser are quite the most stupid people in the world. Or,
Sony HVR-V1U, at least the most stupid people in the world who actually use a browser.
But, of course, I reached those places on a humorous,
Thinkpad T420, rather than intellectual,
Panasonic AJ HDX900, bus. IQ is a very dangerous construct,
Panasonic AG HVX205A, created largely to make those who have a certain type of intelligence feel that theirs is the only type of intelligence worth having. It's as if they've never heard of Forrest Gump or Woody from "Cheers."
When scientists attempt to correlate numbers,
Canon HV20, it's best to open a nice Casa Nuestra Tinto Classico and pour yourself a large glass.
So while all you IE users hurriedly reach to download Chrome,
HP EliteBook 8740w XT909UT,
Firefox,
Canon HG10, or
Safari, please let me tell you that users of these browsers aren't all that much smarter than the doofuses who use IE.
Still, ever conscious of my image, I downloaded Opera late last night, just to give it a whirl. (Normally, I am a Firefox tolerator.) Opera was fast. It was fun. Five minutes ago,
Sony Z134GX/B, it crashed. Perhaps someone intelligent can tell me why.
Which might lead you to a place at which I have already arrived: IE users are so dumb that they will take free online IQ tests. You might also arrive here: IE users are so scared of being dumb that they are desperate to answer IQ tests in the hope of being proved less dumb than they feared.
Whenever a piece of research--thank you to the Next Web for first telling me it existed--finally ceases to make me laugh,
ASUS G73JW-XT1, I begin to ask two questions: One,
Sony F137FX/B, who paid for it? And two, what was the methodology?
AptiQuant describes these conclusions as "really not that surprising."
