Sigh... Explain to me how your damn Mac is going to connect to
the stinking URL when you are connected to the Internet via
a terminal program running through a 2400 baud modem? Yes, I
am REALLY waiting to know how the Mac manages to connect
to the URL.
Jesus H. Christ! Are you serious?

I tried it myself with Lynx just now and it appears just fine.
I guess your Mac is not up to the task. If you want to be
an annoying idiot and make stupid comments without knowing
the situation then I have no problems at doing the same.
Well, I just tried it with my Mac and it works fine. BTW, the first
sentence of the page refers to porting Java to Linux. I doesn't seem to be
all done.
