Netscape 4.76 / Mac

Huh. Apparently the new Netscape 4.76 release for Mac is quite significant... a big feature is the ability to use the MRJ for Java, increasing compatibility with applets.

I wonder though, would that be at the expense of the Java/JavaScript bridge?

Netscape was the only browser that supported JavaScript scripting of Java applets on the Mac... a strategic move by Microsoft to slow down Java, I'm sure. I hope it still supports it.

PS2: how is it?

If you've played with a PS2 today, how is it?

Is it worth getting? I can pre-order one for shipment next week, but I don't want to unless it totally rocks.

Geez Slashdot sucks! They point to that cool article about the PS2, and don't even bother to mention that it was written by MARK PESCE (of VRML fame).

Amateurs. ;-)

Oh... right, I have to go back upstairs and continue to work on convincing Cheryl that getting a PS2 (tomorrow) is a gooood idea!

Turns out the weird blue guys in Intel's latest TV ads are total hardcore Mac users.

Pretty in-depth response on Java vs. ObjC issues

So it looks like there WILL be a GlyphiX for Mac OS X. That's excellent news. I love using GlyphiX! BTW, I was a GlyphiX customer long before I ever considered working there.

(The OAAI site appears to be down right now :-( Try again some time on Wednesday)
