Actually, I do.  Super Geeks is marketing KimosList.Com as Hawaii's Craigslist (Service Bulletin Board) - It would be a shame if they succeed in establishing their website as a central BBS for the islands that Unix users were not able to use it.

Besides, it gives 'old-school' webmasters like myself the heebie-jeebies to see a site that requires a particular browser version.  The very idea of it makes my head swim in disgust at the revolting conceit.

Aloha,

PS - I sent their webmaster a kind note saying that their site had a bug and was not viewable in Unix. - and I provided a link to the W3C's CSS2 reference =)
