[Cube] OFF Topic but worth it/MIME?

[George Pepper]

Why would you assume I'm not referring to the page I'm obviously referring to?  Of COURSE it's the gatesconan.html page that gave me the MIME message. All my machines give the same message and they're all using Safari 1.0.3 (v85.8.1)

Plus, what browser are you using!? Maybe your browser is missing (or does not support) some Macromedia components, i.e. Shockwave, Authorware or Flash.

It shows a Lego block with question marks on it. It doesn't happen often enough for me to be irritated by it and I assumed MIME was a Wintel format or something so I never bothered to look into it. I'm guessing you are viewing this page on a Mac, so WTF is MIME and how do I obtain the plugin?
