actually i NEVER had windows installed on any of my computers. but that
doesn't mean that i didn't see

how that works (on the machines that are not mine). once again will have to
repeat myself: yes, firefox works better on mac os x than on linux so i know
the difference and the problems that exist.

well, what i want to say. hope you will listen carefully.
when simon replied originally to the first email of this thread, he made a
point that the "browser experience" on linux is so bad, that it is unusable
(at least for him, so he switched to windows7).

yes, i don't agree with that. well, this is my viewpoint. and i can assure
you, i have strong arguments to support it, but that would spawn this
discussion far beyond browser experience.

or maybe you want me to agree on this:
>It's sad, because I enjoyed every *other* part of the Linux. But Linux
without a half decent browser is practically useless.

no, i won't ever agree, that FF (linux) and Opera can't even qualify as
"half-decent" browser.

once again, don't be so sure about other ppl experiences and what they know
or think. helps making some insulting statements. like the one above.









as for this debate, the only thing i have left to say is said with the

that is how it was meant in the first place - with a greatest ammount of
humour. some ppl just too take things too seriously sometimes.
