> Here's a few reasons why people still use Netscape 3.x instead of 4.x:

For many libraries this "problem" will be going away in August, for better
or for worse.  The New OCLC FirstSearch (starting in August) will require a
4.0+ browser to use it.  If you don't have a 4.0+ browser you will need to
telnet into OCLC's server and use their copy of Lynx (text only browser.)
Start planning for this upgrade now.
