I don't use IE or Netscape. I use OmniWeb (which I think is the best 
browser I've seen on any platform) which had  problems on some web sites 
before but with v4.1, I swithed to it and removed both IE and Netscape 
from my machine. My wife is still using OS 9 on Cube though, because of 
ADB graphic tablet...:-(, but both my sons run OS X on iMac and 266MHz 
Beige G3. I use Mail for e-mail.

PS Chris, when MultiMode become available for OS X, I will be among the 
first to register it.
