- Me too. It works fine for me with Mosaic, ws_ftp, also the trumpet news
- reader, PC Eudora, and more, but I have severe problems with the ping clients,
- ws_ftpd, WSirc (the new one), WStalk (the new one), and various other things
- on the net.

- I don't know why, or how, since i am not too knowledgable on winsocks, but
- maybe someone else can point out the difference between NOVELL's winsock and
- the others... I thought winsock 1.1 was a standard, but it seems to be not so.

- I have 2 486 DX2/66 in my office, one with 32 Megs (my main machine), and the
- other with 48 megs. I freely admit that I don't need that much ram, but both
- machines are retired file servers and the RAM in the new servers was a
- different type so I got the extra ram. I had no problems whatsoever running
- the latest Mosaic. Its definitely faster at rendering graphic images, as well
- as being generally faster overall. The printing is nice to have, but it still
- needs some work...
