Huh, that is odd. You may have a plug-in or some other issue causing them to mis-read your browser version.

Even funnier - when I try to browse sites that show either fa or glyphicon icons, IE11 only shows a handful of them, but chrome shows them all.
I have no control over plugins in IE - the IA department has that locked down. What I have is what I have, and I cannot add new ones, or disable existing ones.

I've never heard of IE11 referred to as a plug-in, before, but I do see where you're coming from.

Verified! My cohort just tried it and got the same thing.
Thing is, she was on the site last year using IE11 and it worked fine then.

Also confirmed. IE 11 on Win10.

I get the same message on fontawesome.com with IE11.

Latest version of IE11 works fine for me.
I think it is just you, John. You are too old to use IE. IE has always been a bit discriminatory over the years.

I have a hard time even spelling IE. It's that pesky "I before E" rule that gets me.

For my sins I'm currently splitting my working time between two computers but don't have room on my desk for 2 keyboards (and would rather just use one anyway); is there something - preferably free - I can install to share them between the two systems? It doesn't matter (much) if the keyboard and mouse are plugged into my windows laptop or the mac.

Don't know about software ones, not too sure how that would work.
But ... check FleaBay / Amazon for "KM Switch PC MAC" and you'll find there are quite a few - relatively cheap - hardware solutions. They work: I used to have a KVM (Keyboard, Video, and Mouse) switch many moons ago to share four computers with one display and set on inputs: great for file / print servers!

I'm specifically trying to avoid buying hardware, among other things because I don't want to be hammering the next computer button all day long.
A decade ago I had a PC only program that shared my input between multiple windows computers. I just moused from one to the next the same as if they were 2 monitors, the only difference was that I couldn't drag windows across. It just worked, but that was long enough ago that I don't recall the applications name; and would want something known to be good now.

Synergy perhaps? I've used it for years - was free once upon a time.
Appears now, not so free https://symless.com/synergy/pricing but not too expensive either.

I'll echo the Synergy recommendation. I used it for years. It is a great product, relatively cheap, and well maintained and supported.

It works as a master-slave service-ring... However in contrasts to the hardware solution you have to have separate monitors for each computer...

You can get KM switches which are a lot cheaper than the KVM versions, if you want separate monitors (which can help, and can be confusing, all at the same time!).
I'd certainly prefer it to the software solution, if only because it'll work even if the master computer isn't switched on, or even working.

...and a nice reliable cable solutions cost half of the price of the supported (not free) version of the software one...

There's a remote desktop available for the mac (to RD into the PC) from microsoft.
Get started with Remote Desktop on Mac | Microsoft Docs[^]
I've not tried it but the price is agreeable (free). I'd start there. It'll probably also let you copy files between the systems.
That way also saves on the screen too - the PC would be a [minimisable/sizeable] window on the mac.
If you run the mac multi-monitor you could dedicate one to the PC when doing tasks on both.
Signature ready for installation. Please Reboot now.

I've used Remote Desktop this way myself. Have the one computer (the Mac) set up to use both screens. The use Remote Desktop to connect to the Windows computer and maximize that remote window on the secondary monitor. Now your Mac is the one screen and the Windows PC is the other.

I actually use VNC to get a remote desktop on the Mac. But then, my primary desktop is Linux. On Windows, you can install one of the free VNC clients (TinyVNC/TigerVNC??)
If your primary desktop is Mac, it makes more sense to use RDP (eg using the free rdesktop client) to connect to the Windows box.
Also, it is quite feasible to run Windows in a virtual machine on your Mac - just use the the free VirtualBox software on Mac, and install a copy of Windows. I haven't run Windows natively for years - it runs really great as a Virtual Machine. The reverse, running MacOSX on a virtual machine is possible, but hard (Apple try to make it deliberately difficult). See Living la vida Hackintosh | High Performance Coder[^] for more details. I'd love it if Apple made available for purchase a copy of MacOSX for use in a Virtual Machine like Microsoft does. I'd buy it.
