So do I.  My point was that such things are now easily available and I am
wondering if the continued emphasis on NN4 is just parroting of slogans from
the older days.

I remember when IE 5 came out and this very same discussion raged through
this list: was NN4 dead.  Of course it wasn't then as there was no really
viable visual alternative for Linux or Unix and many Mac users would rather
have shut down than use IE...:).

We've come a long way since those days in the distant past, though.  There
are several alternatives on each platform now.  Personally, I dropped
support for appearance in anything older than IE5.5 in the late Spring of
2003.  I still like content to be accessible, but I don't expect my sites to
look in NN4 or IE3 like they do in Firebird!

Sorry, on my Linux boxes, I use Mozilla or Firebird, just
as I do on my W98 boxes. ;-)
