I've been using Linux and FreeBSD with FedEx for at
least 5 or 6 years with minimal problems... certainly
no more problems than any Windoze user would have.

Why? They're not blocking Linux users.

No. Their site has a very slightly updated look
and feel lately, but it still works just fine for me.
If you had a problem, was it just a bug, or was it
intentional on FedEx's part to exclude a certain subset
of their customer base? Think man, think.

The file name is just plain BS.

FedEx obviously isn't blocking Linux/FreeBSD users
as Fox was, so I judge the above as simply a lame ploy
to drive viewers to your obviously lame blog. If what
you have to say is important enough to link to on
Usenet, one would think it would be important enough
to put more than just inaccurate teasers (like those oh
so large and bad corporations do in *their*
advertising.)

And, BTW, Claws must REALLY suck, even more than OE!
