Ah, but you weren't using Internet Explorer, so you wouldn't see how Gawker has purposefully messed up Kinja to make Roberto's life harder.

Run it on Windows 3.1 or older and THEN I will be impressed.

Not sure what's more terrifying - Oppo on Windows 98 or you being able to run Windows 98...

I didn't know one could have Firefox on W98.

A real man would use Netscape.

Yeah, versions up to 2.x are supported... but I figured out how to get 10 to work.

This is why I love PCs. Shit works. Now try to plug in your current iPod to a mac from before 2009. NO LOVE. WTF Apple? Planned obsolescence.

Funny thing is, I bet you could run a brand new iPod/iTunes on that W98 machine.

He "Left" and then renamed his RobertoAtWork Burner to Autovox.

Ok, now try Windows 3.11 for workgroups with Winsock and Mosaic or Netscape 0,95 Beta. I will skip the requirement to use lynx as browser.

(Which is how I used the internet way back in 1994.)

Mosaic gives an error IIRC
