So the OS CAN exist w/o the browser, contrary to BG's claims?

JMHO.

Ok, the Os stays up but you can't browse your disk? What use is that?

Actually, even under NT I've had Internet Explorer basically bring down the OS. It doesn't bluescreen but it gets in to a state where the IE process is taking %100 CPU at a very high priority and I have to reboot. Killing the IE process doesn't work, it won't end the task. This happens a couple times a week.
