Just not a perfect world, Chipp. Should we consider going back to the
days of the Monroe Doctrine? Probably not, but it is sure tempting.
Even one on one relationships are dangerously unpredictable these
days; much less country to country. Sigh!

Yep. One of the biggest hassles we had with altBrowser on Mac was
how to
keep it working on older OSX versions, as WebKit, which altBrowser
for Mac
was built upon, kept changing from version to version, even dot
release to
dot release. I'm pretty sure we had a different version of
altBrowser for
OSX 10.2.8 than for OSX 10.3 because there was no way around it.
Of course Microsoft couldn't get away with the number of changes and
incompatibilities as their developer user base would not put up
with it.
Apple has a much smaller group who are used to wholesale changes in
source
code and compatibilties over the years. While we compatibility rev'd
altBrowser on Mac over and over again, we rarely (if ever) did the
same on
PC's. Not to say that aren't slew of other probls with Windows
(yep, just
try installing a simple screen capture app with 20Mb of .Net 2.0
runtimes!).
