IE has already been ported to Unix (http://www.microsoft.com/unix/ie/default.asp), but it is only for Solaris and HP.

Although I haven't seen this, maybe I'll tinker with that some time this weekend. -----Original Message----- From: plug-discuss-admin@lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us [mailto:plug-discuss-admin@lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us]On Behalf Of Furmanek, Greg Sent: Wednesday, October 04, 2000 9:20 AM To: 'plug-discuss@lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us' Subject: RE: write it in Windows, deploy it to *nix?
