Subject: RE: BS: seriously--about Microsoft, IE, Outlook
Is there a good alternative to M$ word? Like, an actual GOOD one? That just comes with a word processor, not 30-300 more megs of stuff I don't need... never liked WordPerfect (bad memories of high school!), though the Hawk uses it. Word is the only M$Office thing I use - tried Access for a while, but will probably put the stuff online with mysql and php instead. That'll be more convenient for me *and* for my team.

Will check out K-Meleon. Netscape 4.x is not good for iframes and a lot of web developers use them. The thing is, the bells and whistles that M$ puts into IE make IE really attractive for the developers to develop FOR... and a lot of people use it. If there really was a good free browser that could do wonderful java and dhtml and advanced html tricks, that would be great.

I haven't found one yet. :(
