FWIW, if anyone is able to follow this thread . . or is still following
this thread; I think the whole darned thing Reemphasizes the need for us as
web developers to _____ know ____ our demographics and write accordingly. 

Case in point, a little earlier 'someone' wrote:

"but it doesn't change the fact that the 
style attribute WORKS and is the easiest and quickest way to remove 
underlines from a small number of links"

I can lay my hands on (about) 900 machines representing approximately 2500
users within 20 minutes of here for whom this does NOT work. I can
*reasonably* argue that the "easiest and quickest way" to remove the link
underlines is to change the settings in the web browsers preferences.

See my point?

Know thy audience - know them well - and write for _ them _.

HTH,
Fuzzy.
