[ale] windows

[Robert L. Harris]

When I'm poking around the net I sometimes find a web page that doesn't
format right under Konqueror or Netscape.  You see the little text "best
viewed in IE"...  Instead of rebooting I just pop open an eterm and type
"iexplore" and explorer pops up.  I refuse to put it on the menus,
desktop or task bars.

Codeweavers works great and windows apps seem to crash less than in
native windows.

Thus spake Bob Evans (bobevans19 at yahoo.com):
