I nominate Troy's post for the "Post of the Month" award. Thank you!!! :) Pete PS- The reason why I decided to give FF a month is because of a post that came across opera-linux. I had suggested making Opera available with debugging symbols available so that core files that were generated from Opera crashes could be used by the Opera dev team to fix the bugs. A developer mentioned that it was decided not to do this because including an enhanced symbol table was too close to releasing source code and could be used to reverse engineer part of their rendering engine. It kind of pissed me off. Opera used to be the most stable browser for Linux. Hence, my experiment. I think I might stick with FF until Opera gives me a reason to come back. Whatever Opera puts its mind to, it generally does it better than other browsers. An Opera adblock would be a reason for me to go back to Opera. If they put voice-features into the Linux version of Opera, that might also make me switch back. The decision to make debugging versions of Opera available might make me come back too. _______________________________________________ vox-tech mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech
