Trying to open /NextApps/Nexus.app/default.html or help.html, or
/NextApps/OmniWeb.app/English.lproj/Start.html.

Not yet connected to the Internet. Hope to get it connected up soon.

I should think that Lynx or the original Line Mode browser would be OK.

Hoping to get something a little more than Lynx or line mode, but at this
point, I'll take what I can get that works!

Thanks Mark! My system has 48 MB and around 650 MB left on the 1 GB HDD.
Excited about the possibility of contributing to RC5-72! I'll have to hook
up my less-than-good monitor if I'm going to leave it running for long
periods of time. Maybe I'll install a switch in there to turn off the
filament in the CRT when not in use. :)

Those are awesome! Nice work. I'll be posting to /r/retrobattlestations
soon, by the way...maybe as soon as I can load retro.hackaday.com or the
like.
