When I was an IBMer I was one of those using the Linux "Client For
E-Business" build (IMHO very well assembled on top of RHEL4 WS) which,
given the CIO's decree that all internal web-based applications MUST
be "Browser Agnostic" (unlike my experiences as Verizon and elsewhere)
it made the use of Firefox to be "no problem".

Firefox is common to at least *three* platforms--  Windows, Linux and
MacOS X-- so this actually cuts costs in terms of Quality Assurance
when a web application is being rolled out.  (Actually, it has been a
while, but I seem to recall seeing a Firefox build for AIX, too.)

MacOS X proved it was easier to make Unix user-friendly than to fix Windows
