        Apple has an HTML viewer as part of the OS, but it's HTML 
3.2.  They also used to have CyberDog, but killed that for a number of reasons.

        Adobe, has developed a number of HTML viewing components - not the 
least of which is incorporated in their GoLive editor.

        But I can understand why neither want to enter that market...

        Adobe HAS a strange relationship with Mozilla, since Adobe 
owns/owned a big chunk of Netscape.   However, the Adobe legal team has 
gone back and forth about allowing engineers to work on the Mozilla code 
base...and they have indeed worked with it and contributed over time.  But 
it may be that these days the Open Source licenses may be getting in the 
way again.
