  5. A native KHTML browser for OS X? by Steve+Jobbs · · Score: 5, Funny

    The porting of Konqueror to OS X is great news for Mac users, as they now have access to the fast, standards compliant KHTML rendering engine. Many users and developers prefer KHTML to the Internet Explorer or Gecko engines. I was wondering though...does anyone know of a KHTML browser which is completely OS X native? I mean, with a brushed metal skin and full integration into Aqua? It could maybe have other stuff too, like Google search field built-in or something. That would be cool! Anyway, in the meantime I'll just have to continue with Konqueror on OS X.

    Whereas, it was possible to mix Athena and Motif widgets together.

    It's possible to mix tunafish and yogurt, too, but that doesn't mean it's a good idea.
