Hi all. I'm new to the list, looks great!
Anyway, one of the beauties of the so-called "obsolete" stuff, to me, is
the lack of unnecessary baggage, especially in internet apps.
I have no use for a GUI, takes 10 times longer to find what I'm looking
for, and generally gets in the way of things.
There's also the problem of trying to make the web accessible to
*everyone*.
Just my 2 cents. (Or probably closer to a nickle, with me :) )
Take care,
Steve
