Yes, I did know that - but when I looked for the original Camino, it wasn't there. I think THAT's the cause of my frustration! I simply don't understand what happened to it...I have two Camino folders in my Apps folder. Neither are locked, but only one will open and that one has no Camino app in it. "Bummer!! But, is it functional? If it is, do the downloading on the G3, and then worry about the transfer problem." It's the older browsers on the G3 that can't/won't download Camino.
