Re: [SuSE Linux] Story: Microsoft: We Feared Customers Would Choose Netscape
The only kernel panic i've ever seen was caused on my slackware 3.6 system while exiting lynx. Every program created most likely has bugs in it. It's is almost impossible to test code for every possible combination of events. Most similar programs have their advantages. I use lynx, netscape, and while in windoze ie4. Lynx is great when i know exactly where i'm going, but it isn't so great if i'm just surfing around for enjoyment. A similar argument can be made for a distribution of linux or yes, even a microsoft product. -----Original Message----- From: zentara <zentara@mindspring.com> To: suse-linux-e@suse.com <suse-linux-e@suse.com> Date: Friday, February 12, 1999 10:13 AM Subject: Re: [SuSE Linux] Story: Microsoft: We Feared Customers Would Choose Netscape

I think choosing Netscape over Internet Explorer is like choosing the lesser of two evils. Netscape has been crashing bad lately, no wonder they sold out.
Who needs either? Lynx has never crashed on me.
Can Lynx handle "secure-online-ordering" ? Alot of internet e-commerce sites require you to use either IE or Netscape to order things.
