Hey, I'm no Microsoft lover, but IE is better than Netscape." Hmm. Personally, I'm more of a "xterm -geometry =120x50 -e w3m" man, but to each his own I suppose.

  1. Make Mozilla go fast, disable debug by hodeleri · · Score: 3

    The best way to make mozilla move zippily is to compile it yourself. Just download a source tarball, run the build configurator and do it yourself. Strip out all of the debug crap because you don't need it.

  2. Bad original subject line! by #FF6600 · · Score: 3

    The subject of this news item makes it look as though there is something actually happening with IE and BSD. (In fact there isn't and probably will never be.) A better subject line would be "IE for BSD???"
