Is this a fault of the browsers themselves or of OS 9?  Last night I tried
loading eBay's seller page ten times and it ran incredibly slow on
everything I tried--IE, Netscape, Mozilla 1.5, Opera... I thought of
upgrading MRJ, thinking it was a Java problem, but I already have the latest
version.  It's sad when the same page loads up in half the time on my old
Pentium-233 with a 28.8 modem.  Even though it's nice to know it's not just
the slow pre-G3's that have problems surfing the web, it's still a problem
for everyone who wants to use Macintoshes online.  Any clue as to why this
is so?  And would moving back to, say, OS 8.6 fix the problem?
