>Nothing different about the browser.

You're ignorant. The MSN program viewer is a customized IE3, with lots of ActiveX controls, including FutureSplash. And it's black.

>Mac users don't like MSFT to begin with (MSFT threatens their baby, the Mac). Netscape is more solid on the Mac.

Yeah, that's right. Mac users hate Microsoft so much, they would never use Microsoft apps like IE 3 or Office on their computers. As for your solid claim, I've crashed IE 3 very little on a Mac, Netscape lots. Also, IE 3 takes up much less memory.

>Go to a Mac thread on usenet and ask how many of them are using IE 3.0 -- you will be flamed into oblivion.

Uh, go to a Scientology thread on usenet and tell them they're a cult -- you will be flamed into oblivion. So what?

I stay away from MSFT because their PE is high. You would stay away even if their PE was 20. I'm here to make money. You're here to insult everybody who disagrees with you.
