Opera (since 8.0) has support for the SVG 1.1 Tiny specification while Opera 9 includes SVG 1.1 Basic support and some of SVG 1.1 Full. Opera 9.5 has partial SVG Tiny 1.2 support. It also supports SVGZ (compressed SVG).
Browsers based on the Gecko layout engine (such as Firefox, Flock, Camino, and SeaMonkey) all have had incomplete support for the SVG 1.1 Full specification since 2005. The Mozilla site has an overview of the modules which are supported in Firefox[56] and of the modules which are in progress in the development.[57] Gecko 1.9, included in Firefox 3.0, adds support for more of the SVG specification (including filters).[58]
Browsers based on WebKit (such as Apple's Safari, Google Chrome, and The Omni Group's OmniWeb) have had incomplete support for the SVG 1.1 Full specification since 2006.[59]
Amaya has partial SVG support.
Internet Explorer 8 and older versions do not support SVG.[60][61] IE9 (released 14 March 2011) supports the basic SVG feature set.[62] IE10 extended SVG support by adding SVG 1.1 filters.[63]
The Maxthon Cloud Browser also supports SVG

• A more prominent blue gradient in the background (last year's looked a bit flat, I think)
• I haven't recreated the bevelled corners in this iteration, as it's a bit tricky to do in Inkscape…
• The font is still Source Sans Pro, but not oblique (to be more readable). As Inkscape takes font heights in pixels rather than points, they are now 48px for "Hardware Insights", 112px for the grade, and 96px for "award". "Hardware Insights" and "award" are still in the Black/Heavy weight, but the grade is just bold. I've also added a nifty gradient, to give a more metallic (and, on the Fail award, plastic ) look . I got the gold colour from here (scaling the intensity to suit); the bronze colour is still approximate. (If you like, I could try a "fancier" font - but I'll be limited to free fonts, I won't do script, and definitely no cursive. )
• A nice drop shadow "behind" the badges.

…thinking about some special funny awards, we can start with something like "last one standing" or "strongman" or something like that…
