Jon, the ass is even weirder than you think. I just tried it at work, 1.0.3 on WinXP, and it doesn't work.
It's not the first time I've seen differences between the two platforms.
Don't I get a cookie?

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
It didn't work for me, using Foxfire v1.0.3 and W98.
So I went to Tools->Options->WebFeatures, and next to "Enable JavaScript" (which was checked) clicked on "Advanced." I checked "Change Status Bar Text," and now the mouse-over feature works.

That worked for me, too.

The default is that the mouse-over feature is off? That is Weird-ass.
I'm at work now, and the problem is at home, so I'll have to check it out later.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
How about Vamp!Willow?
Ooh, I like. Willow's definitely more badass than Harmony.
Want an iPod with that?
Yes, please. And some fries.

Jon, I'm using Firefox 1.0.3 with WinXP and it didn't work until I enabled the mouseover (thanks dcp). Now it works just fine.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
My iBook died. It's that problem with the screen that iBooks were having, so Apple should fix it for free. Unfortunatly I will be without its services during the F2F and on the train trip.
What's the cheapest possible laptop I can get that has DVD and WiFi? Or a good source for refurbished laptops?
eta: Maybe this from Wallmart, for $528? [link]

Can you do anything with only 128MB RAM these days?

I'd pretty much just need it for DVDs and running a browser. Maybe Firefox or some other non-IE browser that doesn't take as much RAM as Mozilla.
Still not sure if it's worth even spending $528 just so I won't be without a laptop for a month....
eta: Didn't Walmart have some cheapo laptop that came with a version of Linux?
