Hello Michael!

 MR> I found v1a at the latrobe uni mirror site. It runs like a charm on my

 MR> Explorer. Looks like its Netscape for me :) pity the beta expires
 MR> whereas WebEx is free :(

I've found little difference with or without FP22, but other things,
notably multimedia are better.  It will be interesting to see if WebEx is
better with the FP or not.

 MR> The jury is still out here on Merlin. I only have 16mb RAM with a
 MR> DX4-100 and thats unlikely to change for quite some time so I'm a
 MR> little underpowered for Merlin. As well Warp is very stable here

I have a 5x86-133 with 20 Mb & soon to be 28 Mb, so I'm at a slightly
higher level of performance at which Merlin becomes viable.  We'll see.

Bye for now,
          Jackson
