Changing servers (including getting existing installs updated) is even more
painful than changing browsers, though.
It would be very nice if servers had better MIME type handling, but the reality
is that they don't, and likely won't any time in the next several (5+, I would
guess) years.
I'd love to be proved a hopeless pessimist on this point, of course. ;)
