<<Two links...>> Dan, I appreciate the thought but this is not the point that I was trying to make. I have no problem getting to the download area, therefore I don't need the links. It is the newbie / casual-user that goes to your site infrequently that should be gently guided down a wide, well lit path to the product. (hey.... a lighthouse would do the job!) <ggg> -Ken

The download links miss the point (see my other post on layout.) (Shameless plug ;-) If the scaling of the grphics I suggested there is a problem, I can sell you tested filter functions of my devising that would scale all the graphics on a typical page in sub-1-second times, with antialiasing.

All Microsoft employees: DO NOT READ! There, now that we are alone.... Here is a feature that I (and many of my friends) would love to see incorporated into a browser / dialer. Feel free to use it as an Employee suggestion. An alert that would let you know if someone was trying to call in while you are on the internet and give you the choice of answering the call or ignoring it! There is a Canadian company that is selling a product that does this very thing at: interactive.ca I would think that licensing this technology (or developing it in-house) would give Netscape a much needed edge in the Consumer market. I for one would be willing to pay extra for such a feature. Microsoft is currently unaware that there is a need for this (see Microsoft warning at the beginning of this post... I left them in the dark!) Which could give Netscape a healthy jump on "The Empire" -Ken PS. I currently have call waiting (NOT disabled with *70) and can not get my modem to break for an incoming call for anything! My family tends to get unhappy when they can't get ahold of me. PPS. YES I already have a second line, but it is for my son.
