Give us a review of the improvements you notice, compared to the previous OWB for OS4 releases.

Nice to see some cooperation between OS4 and MorphOS2.x camps.

You are a great resource and asset Fab, and apparently a great human being too!


+1 regarding the Fab comment.

I can give you my little review while you wait. First of all it feals faster in pretty much everything. The other thing is that the GUI is way nicer with bookmarks in the menu, sidebar, a good download manager which reminds of the one found in IBrowse, and GUI for everything regarding settings, handling cookies and whatever you would expect from a modern browser.

RAOWB on the other hand feals a lot more clunky, the few config options available are set by tooltypes, the tool for bookmarks opens a window with a list of URLs, and the menu options are for copy/paste text, zooming, open files localy and not much else. It feals like it got a long way to go before it's completed while with MUI-OWB it feals completed.

More speed + nice GUI = very nice browser. I've always loved IBrowse so how can I not like this? I enjoy using it more than for example Firefox on my PC (or any other browser for that matter) so I'm really happy right now.

Will this run without the new update 3? of OS4?


No, there where changes made to MUI that comes with update 3, it won't work without them.

For those who haven't seen this, here is a video that compares RAOWB and MUI-OWB.

Wait for the OS4 port to mature! ;)


You can bet that I will follow this every step on the way :-) . I thought that it would be good but you can't understand how good it is untill you use it I think.
