Of course - even if IE:7 were to pass the test - there are still tens of millions of people who won't/can't upgrade to it.

It's good to see this, and I hope that the Gecko and Opera folks likewise get on the ball and use this as a benchmark for where their efforts ought to go next.

That said, this is just one page. It uses many aspects of CSS, and by itself it's a grueling test case, but it's only one testcase. There is no way one page can possibly accomplish everything. It's a good benchmark, but it's not an end in itself.
You are in Soviet Russia. It is dark. Grue is likely to be eaten by YOU!

He's got his revision of Safari to render the test properly. (see today's post in his blog.)
