Well, that's a "Which came first the chicken or the egg?" question, since the
person to whom this box is going hasn't done any web browsing. My own first
experiences were with NetCruiser (Netcom) and with MOSAIC (NCSA), aside from a
couple of cripling experiences with LYNX. After using LYNX, by the way, I
switched to a shell-based interface via Win3.1x called ICOMM. That worked OK,
considering.
