But with a Very Fine Program like Opera it is like TW> "Cutting off your Nose to Spite your Face"!!! I can't speak for the Windows version but there are some problems with rendering web pages in the Linux version of Opera. However, compared to Firebird, Opera is smaller and faster. Also I only took Firebird out for one cruise around the block so I am not positive that it has problems with certain sites, but the ones I did visit are the ones I most commonly visit and Firebird was of a noticable higher quality in rendering those particular sites. So I suppose it comes down to which you prefer, quality or speed/size. Myself I am sticking with links but that is because I live on the console commandline. Until those browsers can live in this enviroment they will never be competitive here. But then again I am only one user. I was just curious after all the talk here so had to check it out for myself. I am no longer curious. Life is good, Maurice --- Msged/LNX 6.1.1* Origin: LMBrain Pointy System (1:153/401.1) SEEN-BY: 633/267 270 @PATH: 153/401 307 140/1 106/2000 633/267 |
