I'd like to know what the oldest OS/browser combination has visited vcfed.org and made a post here. This is on

I've used an old Netscape browser running on OS/2 to visit. It wasn't pleasant and many things didn't work.

In general it seems PHPBB with an older/more compatible theme is fairly friendly to older browsers. Another good example is good old Mozillazine: http://forums.mozillazine.org/ - it looks and feels like a proper forum should.
