I am not planning soon to"preregister an unpublished work" to protect

5.2.3 (>= 5.1) for Mac OS X, so I would not "experience difficulties".

This was my claim that I was not a person directly affected by the
Internet Explorer requirement for preregistration. "Soon" would mean
before the Copyright Office adds support for other browsers. I think
that my ability to reboot into Mac OS disqualifies me from having
difficulties with IE. I was not describing my opinion about
Microsoft-only government services.
I assumed incorrectly that only such persons could comment. I reread the
page (http://www.copyright.gov/fedreg/2005/70fr44878.html) and noticed
that anyone can comment. It is too late to comment now, but I might
consider some other options.
