well im surfing the net on my C64 right now!...
no im not, but having said that, theres really not much of an excuse to run a computer with hardware that old (p100 / 32mb sort of age), these days people are liturally throwing out pcs that are 600MHZ(give or take a few hundred MHZ , with at least 128mb of ram!
having said that, its good to see a m$ product being used for something fun:)
i love kde, execpt one thing, and that is the fact that on almost every computer ive seen it running on, the actual interface feels like its java or something of like: its very small interface lag eventually gets on my nerves. but never the less, id rather run it than say gnome for example (which is fast, but ugly and utterly un-configurable)
can someone please tell me whats so amazing about this?
you have been able to get 10Mbit and even 100Mbit (if you've got the $) for years and years in new zealand??
is england really far behind or have i missed something?
i use mozilla over firefox because of the following:
firefox is ULGY, even with all the themes out there, its still BIG and ugly, where mozilla is more compact
mozilla loads faster, especially with 'stay in ram' option
mozilla / mozilla mail has more options
mozilla mail is better, more options and again not as UGLY and BIG looking.
firefox looks too much like IE, it seems its been designed for n00b IE users, as apposed to mozilla's more streamlined appearance / usability. i dont like the look of 'firefox, my first browser... after ie'
firefox download manager sucks, its just bad!
the only things i dont like about mozilla are: chatzilla (its terriable!) and the fact that on much older computers, with low amounts of ram, it can be slow.
in conclusion, firefox's core is good, and it may be good for people new to any other browser other than ie, but for heavy / more advanced use, mozilla is the way.
its only now that i have finaly moved away from VIA, ive moved to nforce2, the chipset is SOOOOOOO much better, i didnt expect this much of a difference to be honnest, but VIA really is Nforce2
what i find interesting this that on the benchmarks, the opteron 150 kicks the pX to hell and back, but what is interesting is that the 32/64bit Gflops of the pX are higher, suspecting to me that they want to belive that they will perform in real life situations, when in actual fact they dont...
my grandpa had it about 5 years ago,
his eyes have never been better,
he has no problems with it at all, and it all went smooth as.
he now doesn't need glasses!
what about removing scroll lock?
hardly anyone knows what its actually there for anyway, and thoes that do dont seem to use it?
oh and another thing,
insted of removing a key, why not 'change' the key,
to something cool,
sure you can do it with a program / tweak but have the actual key relabled.
like a picture of tux on it, that opened the console, or a key just for undoing (heh)

perhaps its because they haven't /bothered/ looking for bugs in their software...

thats what 'stay in ram' is for, takes me less than .3 of a second to start mozilla ... ? unless perhaps you have a small amount of ram (512)

Sounds good to me!
