Mozilla is still locked out, as is Netscape 6. I don't know much about Konqueror but it didn't get anywhere either when I had it act like IE on Windows 95. This is crazy. Mozilla and Netscape 6 are *CROSS PLATFORM* and they support Netscape 6 on Windows and MacOS. It seems they rely on Java, which is also cross platform. There should be no issue with letting non-Mac, non-Windows people in. It can only give them more users, not fewer.
