Macintosh users will be glad to hear that they are working on the
problem of displaying search results in Mac browsers, and expect to
have a solution shortly. The problem seems to lie in the
less-than-promised support for XML in Netscape and Mozilla.

Maybe, but only as long as you use a proportional font (with the
narrower "l"!), otherwise it is a draw with the National Library of
Norway (nb at nb.no) and many others. .com, .edu, .net etc. users have a
handicap from the start, but as the domain .us comes into use,
addresses like "wb at cu.us" or perhaps even "w at cu.us" should become
possible.
