this is precisely what i had feared. during the msn debacle i simply changed the browser ID in konqueror and was granted access, no problem. shouldn't this be an issue that is raised to the industry trade rags? i think i'll send a message to mr. cringely. -----Original Message----- From: ian reinhart geiser To: plug@lists.phillylinux.org Sent: 12/12/01 1:23 PM Subject: Re: [PLUG] interesting experiment -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 On Wednesday 12 December 2001 01:10 pm, you wrote about [PLUG] interesting experiment: > what do you think is causing this discrepency? i'm certain the rendering > engine isn't changed to be more compatible with IE based html.
