I remember reading in one of the online Mac bibles some years ago that
Internet Explorer 5 was the best browser ever released not just for Mac but
for any platform ever. I also remember the amazed suprise I got from long
time Mac users (Netscape & Eudora fans mainly) when I started championing
IE5 and Outlook Express 5 as the best available software for Web & Email. I
think the Mac unit at Microsoft have released some great software over the
years. If only they were allowed to write a fully MAPI compliant OS X native
Exchange client instead of serving up the half baked efforts to make
Entourage work (sort of) with Exchange.
Still the world moves on.

Camino).
