Microsoft.com v/s Apple.com

apple vs microsoft

First things first. This post will no where relate to OS war, its just a homepage war of two giants.

Most of the web designers will work like a donkey to make sure their web template or the blogging themes are w3c Compliant. Yet most web designers will fail to get it valid.

But here the two giants has a massive bunch of people working for their company day and night, but yet they have failed in creating a w3c compliant WebPages (HTML). At least, they could’ve made their homepages valid. :p (No offense meant).

Here are the results of the validation from w3c validation.

Number of errors in www.apple.com : 10
Number of errors in http://www.microsoft.com/en/us/default.aspx: 27

Validation result pages: Apple.com & Microsoft.com

Note: Do remember that the number of errors keeps changing, because those people keep updating their homepages every now and then.

And the results of few other popular website:

en.wikipedia.org | Errors: 0

Wordpress.org | Errors: 2

Yahoo.com | Errors: 34

Intel.com | Errors: 50

Ubuntu.com | Errors: 54

Oh, I for our favorite site:
thinkdigit.com | Errors: 178 + (no Doctype found)!

Damn, I also forgot to give the verdict between apple.com and Microsoft.com.

Verdict:
And the winner is, Apple.com :p
