IBrowse FAQ

[J]

It looks real good for outsiders when they hear that the browser comming with the OS is just running under emulation! what it Apple was to do the same?

Apple *did* do the same when the moved to PPC. Okay, Apple didn't actually produce a browser but they included a 68k emulator in the OS to run 68k Apps. And Apple did all this years ago.

I can't say I'm impressed by the iBrowse FAQ. It doesn't really make a positive impression. I mean CSS I can understand but Flash, PPC I thought would've beena priority. Again, I can sort off understand time contraints they have.

Having said that, if Amiga OS wants to be taken seriously, it needs a fully featured Web browser and a MS Office compatable office suite.

I'm sorry so many people feel that the FAQ has put a negative spin on the 2.3 release. That was not our (or mine - I compiled it) intention in any way, it was simply to clear up some common questions and missconceptions, and to provide some information for new visitors to the site (and the 100+ new subscribers to the mailing list since the site was "announced").

Thanks for your response. I guess it's preferable to release an honest FAQ than BS the community more with special features that don't exist.

The PPC situation seems to be typical of the Amiga scene at the moment - a PR cock-up. :-x  I wish people would get the facts right before annoucing things..especially about other people's products  :-x

I look forward to the day when we have an Amiga Browser, PPC version with Flash, CSS etc. Hopefully it won't be *too* long  :-)
