[Link][Icon]Probably the first of many

I thought the dinosaurs that wouldn't work with Firefox had all died out. But I just tried to order a book for my course (only one week to go!) and the order form wouldn't render properly.

Good old IE 4 Linux came to my rescue (again) by allowing me to sully my pristine Ubuntu system with Internet Explorer 6, courtesy of Wine.

Luckily, Open Office is pretty good at faking MS Word's .doc format, but I can't help but wonder how many other things are going to demand proprietary crud getting put onto my system.

Oh well.. worst comes to worst, I can always fire up Qemu and do it all via the emulator :o)
