I'm sure that there're already some DOS browsers (which are freeware,
too), but from what I've read here so far it seems that some people
still wait for any real alternative to Netscape or MSIE. When I think
about how Linux and especially DJGPP were made, I'm rather optimistic
that such a project as a Web-Browser would be possible as well. Maybe
this thread is the beginning of a new era... :)
