That was basically my point, yes. It can be instructive to test
one's designs in Mosaic 1.1, but how many people do? I definitely
think that having a number of different browsers on-hand to test with
is a good thing, but I also think they ought to be browsers that
people actually use. So far as I know, nobody surfs the Web with
Dreamweaver's "Preview" pane. (Assuming that's even possible.)
