I can assume (but don't like to assume) that you're comparing Firefox on the laptop with Firefox on the desktop?
Strange that a new laptop would have a discontinued OS on it. Installing Debian should make the two look the same, but having the same settings should make them the same too. Personally, I would prefer to install Debian (or maybe Ubuntu, which is a Debian), but would probably have to set up dual boot so I could use XP when needed (which is how I set up my Mac). --Don Ellis On Sun, Jan 2, 2011 at 11:28 PM, waldor socket <[email protected]>wrote: > I have a good friend who is a member of your group.
