Well, I don't agree with you. I'm using Netscape for Windows on my PC 386DX-40 via Slip/PPP and a v32bis modem quite often and it is not THAT slow. In fact I get quite fast response times in off peak hours (2-5 am ;-))). I tried also Lynx but without the grafics WWW isn't that attractive... > If Sam did PPP it would be one in the eye for certain folk, but Why should PPP for SAM be a problem for someone? Unfortunately SAM is so little known that nobody would bother... :-( > I strongly suspect speed would be very S L O W ! I don't know the tecnical details of the Slip/PPP protocols so I can't comment on that, but once Slip/PPP works, writing a Netscape clone would be a minor problem me thinks...
