They said you can still download IE for Mac, I said yes but its isnt going to be supported I was just tryign to find out If "SAFARI" which at that ponit i didnt know what browser mac uses, they said most browsers will work so im in the dark, If it dosent work ill have to go dial up YUCK!!!!! i doubt that will happen but hey if any of you hear or know anything let me know thanks a bunch Milton

It's not being developed for PC anymore either. IE is no more. Yay!
Safari should be fine.
You will love your "Mac". Not MAC

Any ISP can be used in conjunction with any browser. The two are completely independant of each other. In fact, any ISP can be used with any OS, as far as I know. You could well port AtheOS to a MIPS workstation and have the thing online. How's THAT for obscurity and being in the dark?
