I didn't post from IE3 or my iPod merely because it's too much trouble to login, especially on my iPod where I can't copy/paste the password or upload the screenshot.

I could with either though, so that's what counts.

^ Same here... I can't take a screenshot from the Wii. I took a really bad pic of my really old rear projection TV.

Here is Camino 1.5.4 on OSX 10.5 Leopard:

I'm ashamed to say I have Safari installed on XP....but my boss made me do it so I can make sure all my javascript works on all browsers. When you're a web developer it's a good practice, even if it means you have to install crappy browsers such as:

Safari 3.0.4 on XP

Tell me about it. I had to install that thing so that I could test my iPhone specific app and of course Safari renders TOTALLY different from a real browser, so...

It's now based on Firefox and it really shows. A LOT of it is very Firefox-ish, but one thing that's not very Firefox-ish is that the thing opens a confirmation dialog for every action you perform. Open new tab? Confirmation dialog. Visit new website? Confirmation dialog, and so on and so forth. I haven't used it in years but I just downloaded the new version just for this thread (game).

I'm admitting failure on this one. Compuserve 2.6 on Vista. It wanted my user details for a company that was sold about 10 years ago...
Installing it was a laugh, I nearly pissed myself laughing when it said "This program was designed for a 16-bit version of Windows. Please contact Compuserve for the 32-bit version".

Sorry, I really can't consider Ubuntu different from Kubuntu. Other distros will count in the hopes that people won't waste their time with Firefox again and fine something cooler, if suckier.

Good thing I got Windows 98 in there. Formatted my drive due to major software/hardware issues which made my main machine unbootable.

Sorry I've been gone for a while, but through no fault of Vista (nothing but my own stupidity) I had to do a complete reinstall on my laptop. Hopefully I'll be able to get something working that WINE was giving me trouble with soon.

EDIT: Up and running with Avant Browser 10.2.

http://pic.phyrefile.com/2008/01/29/avantbrowserinuse.JPG

Surprisingly works very well despite backwards interface. This is an old version too...
