    But one thing, if you do use Opera, please go into preferences and stop it 'Identifying as IE'

    even simplier - by pressing F12 key. and choosing "Identify as Opera". and there is some more very handy options.

    Opera is flying on my K6-200 with 96MB ram. even with built in email client. i think, the main problem with Firebird is - its eating too much memory. even on new boxes with 128 and 256MB ram. and those zillion extensions...

    actually only opera does it right by showing popup with ok and cancel. which is nice.

    one name - Opera for Linux, Windows, Mac and other OSes. not only Google search but others too (Lycos, Ebay, Dealtime...). not to mention popup blocking, image, video, mp3 search, zoom function, tabbed browsing... and it's small and fast as hell too... and all out of the box. without extensions and others -tensions...

    same here. my two friends (totally illiterate in computers) - one is in real mess by now. his winxp laptop is again full of spyware and god knows what. still he refuses to change his habbits. another one is listening to my advices so his life is much easier and safer. actually it's really funny to watch both of them arguing between themselves about their computers. first friend's main argument is that he will change his internet explorer to alternative when that becomes worldwide standard...

    why always when someone mentions Pixar they say that "Pixar is best known as the studio behind the Toy Story series and the more recent movie Finding Nemo"? Monster's Inc. anyone? and For the Birds? thats masterpieces!

    i think for some time now Pixar's name automatically becomes a must see for all. and Pixar will be very o.k. without Disney's not so valuable anymore "name".
