Don't read this post wrong, I'm not saying you're stupid or anything of the sort, I'm just giving my point of view.

Believe me, I can understand why you want FireFox.  But, I'd much prefer a more functional IBrowse!

We already have PC compatible spreadsheet, database, etc, with some really nice programs, much nicer than a slow ported program.

Ports are a good way to bridge the gap when genuine Amiga programs are not available, but genuine Amiga programs always end up being better than the ports.  I have a Sparcstation next to my Amiga, if I really need to run Unix software that bad, which I don't, I'll do that.

I was pondering that question when I read your first post.  I don't remember if it was an actual port, or just meant to look the same.  I do know that a lot of corrupt MP3s that don't play at all in WinAmp play just fine in AmigaAmp, until the latest version of AmigaAmp.
