I noticed the load in IE6 was a bit slow. Not sure if that’s my machine. But anyhow, I consider this “hack” to be significant. I’m surprised more people aren’t talking this up. from a pure web design perspective, SVG allows for the use of transparency and gradient without large file downloads. I think this is a big deal and am glad I don’t have to “settle” for SVG to work only on FF and IE7. Way to go Ben!
