> Internet explorer became the dominant browser for one reason only: it came by default.

Default helped, but IE was the far superior browser for a long time. People chose to use it.

I was also a FF user and it came out a few years later than IE6. When FF came out IE6 was still the superior browser, though it was eventually overtaken by both FF and Chrome.
