Why is the home page locked on the Netscape startup?
Standardization. We need to ensure that what comes up on each desktop is suitable for viewing. That is the argument I would use. What they launch off to after that page is up to the instructor. We can always create a menu option that launches netscape with a different page than the Oakton home page. If an instructor wants to have netscape launch with their course page by default, a new application object with that page as one of the startup parameters is certainly doable. But the default icon on everyone’s desktop will be standard. You could also make the argument that as we begin to deploy more applications at Oakton, we need a launching point and it would seem that the occ home page is the likely candidate to launch from for occ educational applications.
