I did the same, Anne, and I found that while it works properly, its really s-l-o-w. Slow to start up and slow to move along the Web. I was under the impression that Galeon uses the Gecko engine of Mozilla, or something core to it. How can it be that a Gnome app on a KDE platform should outperform a neutral one like Mozilla? Is it my system or something else? The truth is I like the pop-up control and tab feature of Galeon over Mozilla...I think its better and more intuitive. Then there's the better import capability over Mozilla. That one makes no sense after how long Netscape has been competing with Internet Explorer! Still, I do recognize that Mozilla has aspects of it that makes it a better choice over Galeon..for one...lack of dependency on the Gnome project architecture and the lack of interaction with KDE. There are other reasons for my believing this. Any ideas why Mozilla would be so much slower? T
