You must be insane...

izchan · 12th April 2005, 06:04

seriously ... the only issue I have is that its loading very slowly.

If you could help me with this, i would be more than happy to move over totally.

I only use firefox when I am doing forums.

bgesley · 12th April 2005, 07:04

I guess the question is, what does IE do for you that firefox can't?

izchan · 12th April 2005, 07:12

it loads up much faster.
firefox hangs when i try to get to a few pages at the same time, but ie just go aheads and gets everything.

Wolfgang · 12th April 2005, 07:37

try opera then. It loads very fast and has the same basic features firefox does.

izchan · 12th April 2005, 07:51

because u remind me of mozart ... I shall heed ur advice.

I don't know if it's just my super fast internet, or the fact some of these IE users are just whiney.

But my pages load just as fast as in IE. Or maybe a fraction of a second slower. But not even close to the point where I would use IE. IE is just so useless. So flawed. And I just don't see why they do not have tabbed browsing.

That right there is my #1 reason for using FF. #2 is I like the clean look to it. Mozilla is just plain ugly to me.

Anyway, lesson is.. IE sucks, FF good!

Wolfgang · 12th April 2005, 14:59

heh. Mozart used firefox too, by the way.

Leonhart · 12th April 2005, 15:46

Didnt Bill Gates used to work for Apple at one time or something, and he made windows from the Apples OS. Wel thats what i have heard.

izchan · 13th April 2005, 06:01

Well according to Priates of Silicon Valley, Bill Gates just freaked when Apple produced a GUI into their OS, ASAP so Bill Gates put WIN on MS-DOS, STAT and they've been having a WTFHAXBBQ since then.

izchan · 13th April 2005, 08:51

I am now officially an opera user ... this thing is fast ...

...

and I might say so ... faster then firefox and ie.

I love this browser.

Wolfgang · 13th April 2005, 17:32

At least it's not IE. Did you pay for it to get the banner removed?

You've now reached the pinnacle of internet browsers.

Welcome, my friend, to the promised land.

izchan · 14th April 2005, 02:05

no ... you think I should? the ad does not seem intrusive.

izchan · 14th April 2005, 02:08

opera ...

just because you dislike the husband, should not taint your view on the wife.

I personally think she looks nice.

spiderbaby1958 · 14th April 2005, 03:50

For me, the most important thing Firefox does that IE does not do is run on Linux. And I like the tabs. Why does every fucking browser in the Universe except IE have tabs, and yet IE is the most popular browser. Tabs are so useful!

Actually, I prefer Mozilla Navigator to Firefox, but it's true that it does load up pretty slow sometime. Maybe I should try Opera which has tabs AND runs on Linux.

It does take up a lot of space, I like to maximise the space in the browser devoted to the actual content of the page. I downloaded Opera to make sure that the website I'm making looks OK in several browsers. I'm liking it a lot!

Melinda Gates might look like a nice person, and I'm sure she is, but I don't find her attractive.

izchan · 14th April 2005, 09:40

yeah u should try opera.

... I have like all the browsers on this pc because I need to do the same thing ur ... test the websites.

Leonhart · 14th April 2005, 13:28

I use firefox at home, and its really fast for me, becasue of a little tweaking i did. At work its IE.

Warrior of the Light · 14th April 2005, 14:14

If you prefer the 'speed' and compatibility of IE, then you should try Maxthon.

/ I generally use Opera, but for the websites that Opera doesn't support (Gmail, our schools's intranet) I use Maxthon.
No FF for me.. In fact, FF has more holes than IE

If only Safari was available for PC..

If this was really true, then over half the US population would look really unevolved.

What about the Catholics? How many of them do you think believe in Creationism?

Well that's my two cents.

k seriously, where is your evidence of that?

Unless you mean FF is more "holy" than IE. Which is true

It's a joke, Bill Hicks was a comedian. Well some and many of his jokes have a meaning. He means on intelegence level. EIGHER WAY wrong forum/topic. PM me like some people did, more evolved ones)))
