While I will agree that firefox2 has become far more costly on resources than its predecessor, I'm not entirely sure a move to kazehakase is what we need. Anyone who would like to should install it and see what they think but I'm just a big fan of the user interface. Any other suggestions? ... perhaps a gnome based browser that might be easily ported to be gtk-only dependent?
On the other hand .... sylpheed-claws has my vote to replace thunderbird, t-bird is just too fat for its own good these days. -Adam On 12/6/06, Wesley Hearn <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
