Not completely true.  Higher versions are tested if/when available during the 
release cycle for a given release - or tested on subsequent patch releases.  So 
BMC does not test *just* the minimum version and no others.  

That said, the statement that higher versions are supported because of forward 
compatibility is completely accurate.  So if a new browser version comes out 
post-release, BMC still supports it because of the backwards compatibility of 
the browsers.

When they say Explorer 6 and higher it means it has been tested for Explorer 
6 but not tested on higher, but it being forward compatible, it should work. 
So you should be good on Explorer 7 or Firefox 2.0 and any version 
higher....

You may want to search for Flash compatibility too, as some consoles of ITSM 
7.x onwards have flash objects.. With pre 7.6.4 apps, these were limited to 
CMDB and SRM, but with 7.6.4 apps these have been extended to consoles of 
IM, AM, PM and CM as well..

There may be mention that certain versions of a flash player is not 
supported.. Also for IE I have learnt that installing only the Flash Player 
plugin is not enough. This would be enough for Firefox, Safari or Chrome, 
but for IE, you need the Flash Player ActiveX installed..

Hope this helps..

Joe
