I think this is an overstatement .... I think (know) that older browsers 
are able to show at least simple XHTML pages.  For demonstration purposes 
I've used Netscape 3.0 to view the W3C's XHTML pages, their DTD info 
(given below) indicates they are written in XHTML and I am able to view 
and print XHTML 1.0 spec from there

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML Basic 1.0//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/WD-xhtml-basic-20000210/xhtml-basic10.dtd">
<html xml:lang="en" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
