    I think that by the time that phoenix reaches 1.0 it will be bigger than mozilla.

    So when Phoenix 1.0 is finally released, we will be able to fight communism in covert operations, counter the plans of the evil Murdoch, get to save our clumsy friends and build bombs with a refrigerator or a flamethrower with a vibrator ?

    Cool ! Phoenix Foundation really rules.

    Side joke :

    Q:how many 't's are there in "MacGuyver" ?
    A: 76 : "ta ta ta ta ta ta ta

    Wow! Theme support! That's great! That's all a light and fast browser needs! Man, theme support!

    Er... wait... who the hell needs theme support?

    And that it will result in a ton of Slashdot posts claiming IE had it first.

    > Actually, they're adding features and performance together. Phoenix is getting smaller, faster and more featureful all at the same time.

    So, if we follow this reasoning, pretty soon now Phoenix will shrink to zero size, infinite performance, and have all possible features.

    Quite frankly, in these days of cd-roms, huge hard drives and high speed internet access I could give a crap about the download size. I don't care anymore it's 5MB or 200MB download. I'd download and install mozilla even if it included mp3 files of the complete work of the mormon tabernacle choir if it was just damned FASTER.

    I think by "any browser" he meant "any browser worth giving two shits about."
