If you're shoveling out any Java applets, you will want to support
HTTP/1.1 and keepalive connections, otherwise your applet download
time using IE4 will be enormous.
If you're going to write an embedded web server, get yourself a
good etherent monitor program, several PCs (& Macs if you care
about them) and a good selection of browsers, and test the hell
out of it. All WWW browsers suck in various ways, but they all
suck differently. ;^)
