Has Ubuntu Replaced Windows on Your Box?

I am pleased to be able to report that I have been totally
(K)ubuntu for 
well over a year now. Prior to that I had tried Debian, SUSE
and 
Mandriva, but I wasn't totally happy with any of them. 
Fortunately, as 
the person in charge of IT, I am able to run a Kubuntu
desktop at work 
too!  Joy!  No more Windows XP . . . except when I need to
use the 
ParcelForce website in the UK - it only accepts Windows XP
and Internet 
Explorer!

Cheers,

Rick

Out of curiosity, I just checked http://www.parcelforce.c
o.uk in Firefox -
and I see no error messages or statements that it accepts
only IE and Win
XP - are we on the same page, as it were ?

Seems to work in Firefox on Dapper, at least here...

The basic page works fine, but if you click on the
"Send Now" option it 
errors with a requirement to use IE

I consider that the golden rule requires that if I like a
program I
must share it with other people who like it.
