Go to the downloads page and try there. Nothing happens at all. Is that a problem with our page code? Or just that, as mentioned above, Chrome is junk?

I notice that there is a newer one on files.squeak.org. Assuming
that the newer one works, it may be that the only problem is that
our download button is pointing here:
  http://files.squeak.org/5.3/Squeak5.3-19435-32bit/Squeak5.3-19435-32bit-202003021730-ARMv6.zip

but it should instead be this:
  http://files.squeak.org/5.3/Squeak5.3-19458-32bit/Squeak5.3-19458-32bit-202003021730-ARMv6.zip
