Opera is my default browser.
I get enough email (and other documents) with embedded links that it's easier just to make IE my default browser. Although I could probably change Secure CRT to use a different browser (checks: yes, I can); that would take care of the email, and anything else I'm looking at on the main development systems (Linux boxes at a colocation site). I sit in front of a Windows box, but it's mostly a remote terminal emulating multiple VT220s logged in (via SSH) to the Linux boxes. The main native Windows applications I use are Visual Studio and a couple of older C++ environments (Visual C++ V6.0 & EVC V3). Plus, of course, running/testing Windows versions of our products. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
