(Information on FreeBSD is available at www.freebsd.org) I and some other of my fellow FreeBSD users would like to see a = version of Microsoft Internet Explorer (4.0 or greater) for our OS. A thing to note is that FreeBSD has support to execute Linux = binaries. Currently, the only decent modern browser for our system is Netscape Communicator which to some of us is a second choice for a browser even = when we are running Windows. Unlike some UNIX system users, I respect Microsoft and I am very much impressed to see that IE had been ported to UNIX (A competing platform) in the first place. I would appreciate some feedback on my request. Thanks Bill billieakay@yahoo.com=20 -----End Copy----- Bill billieakay@yahoo.com=20 ----- Original Message ----- From: Chris To: Bill A. K.
