I'm running an older browser on a 4-year-old sgi. It sees stylesheets just fine, but I get this bizarre error page everytime I load arena.net.
In fact, [and this is the annoying bit] during the 2 second meta-refresh pause, my browser acutally loads the page. But since it could not display just the right version of Arial, I could not view the page for long.
I'm sure the article is very interesting. I thought of loading on the laptop sitting behind me, but since they're being so snotty about it I think I'll pass.
