I have read this string of emails rather quickly and I am trying to weed out
fact and problems:
People are saying that IE6 is not compatible with their systems. Aren't most
of you using some sort of Microsoft operating system?
I am a Mac buff altho my caf� will have both pc's and macs and I have found
I simply prefer the IE5.5 interface to Netscape's.
And Netscape 6? PU is everyone who uses pc's really THAT boring? I hate it!
It looks like windoze. Blech. (I admit it, I am a shallow Californian and I
need everything pretty)
But I am taking in all this info like a sponge in hope that when my caf� is
ready to open I have foreseen all these probs!
