What's up with that?


Nice stats. Too bad they probably aren't correct, since most Linux
browsers are configured to lie about themselves and the OS they're
running on. Seems there are a lot of pages that just won't work if you
don't tell the server you are running IE on some form of MS-Windows.
Firefox makes it easy to set up the fake headers for this very reason.

There is currently a survey underway at Groklaw in an attempt to find
out which sites are the worst when viewed with other browsers. My
biggest problem is Major League Baseball.

Yes, I still use Agent on Win98SE for the newsgroups. As soon as I
find a usable replacement, this final piece of Microsoft garbage can
be replaced.
