Example: an ebook that is downloaded toyour computer and is in html format that you need to open with any browser withouthaving to connect to the internet. Please let me know!

Yes..the mac has Safari built in which will
handle any HTML file..whether your
connected or not. You're of course free to
use any other browser (just like your free
to use other than explorer in windows) but
you don't *have* to...
Incidentally...Browsers only connect to the
internet if the file's out there and need to
be accessed..they're not 'always'
connected, even when a window is open,
but only when you're actually retrieving a
file...it just seems that way, especially
with modern web pages made up of over
a hundred different files!

Dude! HTML can be read with a simple text editor! YES HTML works on any machine that can run a web browser. HTML is NOT machine specific(so long as MS stays away from it)

You are mixing up the capabilities of
BROWSERS with the capabilities of the
PLATFORM that the browsers are running
on.

ANYTHING that can be done with your
BROWSER on a WINJUNK machine can
also be done on a MAC or any other
machine. The capabilities of the
BROWSER have NOTHING to do with the
machine they are running on.
