i dont touch netscrape with a 30 foot pole....ive been pretty militant pro-IE all my life, (MacOS, and ClownOS[windoors]) and have never had a problem with it.....however after using Chimera for about 7 minutes, i opened the internet preferences control panel, and im sure you can guess what i did........ hehe seriously, its INCREDIBLE how much faster it is. and its .5ware.......not even a 1.0 release yet. if you are weary of running such bleeding edge on the machine (which i can tell you from experience hasnt been an issue on my 10.2 powered rev2 ibook 12") you could also try mozilla, which is also very speedy, and is what netscrape is based on. www.mozilla.org for both chimera and mozilla
i suggest getting chimera just to try it, if nothing else. On Monday, September 23, 2002, at 12:12 AM, Gary D.
