    I'm not 100% convinced - surely if Microsoft were releasing a product they would do it on microsoft.com whereas you have to go to msfirefox.com to view the details of that product.

    Its a joke, Check out the video on the site as well as some of the pictures used in the tabs on the web page.
    However it is not entirely implausable that something like this may happen in the future.

    Kind of scary, isn't it.

    Not that Microsoft might buy Firefox, but that there are people out there that would fall for such an obvious joke.
