EL>> Actualy we don't owe them anything mozilla might has been a nice project
EL>> but seriously.
EL>> konqurer and opera are doing much better job
Very debatable claim.
EL>> opera might not be complitly free but it's the best linux browser I saw so
EL>> far it doesn't crash at all it's VERY fast and it's not over massive work
Well, s/doesn't crash/didn't crash for me/. Because I saw it crash
many times. And Opera is by far not the best browser. It doesn't support
non-english languages in any sane manner, for instance. This one is enough
to rule out any serious use of it. Also, their DHTML support seems to be
lacking - a lot of scripts that worked with Mozilla, MSIE & Netscape do
not work with Opera. Yet another reason to drop it.
EL>> like konqurer (which comes as part of the basic kde, they really learn
EL>> everything from ms) ro mozilla which has more and more useless modules
EL>> while not even being able to handle simple web pages without crashing
*bzzt* FUD alert! Which simple web page Mozilla can't handle without
crashing? Could you quote Bugzilla bug number that you submitted for this
crash?
Also, s/useless/ones that I do not use/. Because, you know, there are some
people that do use them.
As for Konqueror, I tried it once. It misrendered so many pages I tried
and also didn't have sane charset handling too. And last time I tried SSL
wasn't working either. Maybe for browsing "me and my pussy cat" home pages
it's OK, but for serious browsing it is way below the cutoff line.
