This has been present for 3 or 4 months now. So they aren't actuallyl changing
their site to make it work. It'd be great if we could give them a push.
Ok, for all you 'beamers' or wanna be 'beamers' I will talk to them. -> P1

As of 9/4/02, using Mozilla 1.1 on Windows, you are able to view www.bmwusa.com.
However, the top menu bar is shown twice and cannot be used to navigate the
site. In other words, they no longer reject Mozilla flat out, however the page
is unusable. Does this now make it a Mozilla bug?
