Well, thanks for that. I'll try IBrowse and see what it's like. Voyager 3
is of course not yet finished I'll evaluate it fully when it's complete -
it seems promising at least and works quite fast on my machine which is a
pretty ordinary one (1200 030/50/fpu). IE5 seems okay to use but I haven't
really hammered it so haven't discovered much in the way of bugs.
I do suspect the Amiga browsers are by far the fastest but this may not be
seen in practice due to the disparity in processor speed. I think once the
bugs are out and the functionality fully there Voyager will be an excellent
product - what I need to have from software is the surety that it won't
crash on the next press of a link! That's a bit more important to me than
the latest features, which can follow.
Happy Christmas
