You mean pre-smartphone era stuff like WAP browsing? Yeah        RIP could've possibly had something there. I was thinking more of the        Spinnaker web server that had direct integration with Searchlight. Spinnaker        was buggy as hell but if it was fixed up and *really* worked on seriously it        had the potential for something interesting. It was purely database-driven and       in a weird way seemed like the precursor to CMS-websites like Wordpress.              Nick              --- Renegade vY2Ka2        * Origin: Joey, do you like movies about gladiators?
