Im sorry but I dont agree with that at all. The Mozilla experience
and the IE experience would be far from swish without plugins
such as Java, Flash etc etc.

What IS missing on the Amiga side of things is the plugins.

Roll on XHTML!
Hate figure. :lol:

Tell you what, instead of ripping into you which was my first reaction ( bad ) how about you prove your case.

Tell me how much harder it is to adapt plugin code from another platform/browser to this platform/browser combination vs porting Mozilla and then the plugin code.

Note that you are conversing with someone who has ported Mozilla before onto two platforms.

I dont think AmigaOS needs Mozilla, I think it needs a *better* browser than all the other platforms - the Amiga edge. With Mozilla there is no value add to using AOS.

d) is more compliant towards w3c standards than any other browser!


Note this is not true. I suggest you poke around http://www.w3c.org and do a bit of reading from the proverbial horses mouth.

If Amaya wasnt such an un user friendly experience I would
suggest porting that instead - and upgrading it.

It is 100% compliant with standards because it is ( at least
up until recently, Ill check ) the browser we use to check
out new draft standards.
