True.  Some of us use iBrowse extensively anyway (like right now).

Aweb is worth a look, too.  Isn't it open source now?

Voyager was the 3rd option, but I think it is no longer in development.

Just my humble 2 cents worth, I find IBrowse to be responsive on the sites I visit.  I normally run with Javascript OFF, which greatly improves usability.

I even prefer my Amiga browsing experience on sites like A.org, eBay, Yahoo, Wikipedia, etc. to booting my new XP laptop and using it.

Gee Wiz!

Don't take any one's comments as gospel (except maybe mine, grin).  It's clear A.org members represent the entire spectrum of expectation. We have no shortage of negativity here. It's often shocking to me how people go on at great length about how limited, out-of-date, poorly concieved, under-powered, unusable, hobyist-only, games-only, collectable-only, unworthy of serious consideration, etc, the Amiga is.  All this on a site founded to promote and celebrate what a unique and relevant experience operating an Amiga can be.

Experience it for yourself!

You will then be more useful and better informed.

@ Terse

As far as I know, you still can't get new registrations.  I would find this frustrating if I didn't already have one.


@ Malakie

Sorry.

You guys are hitting on the prime reason that I feel that technology is becoming less about improvement and more about fashion, trendiness, and marketing.  Some aspects of using a computer have not improved in the last 15 or 20 years, it's just a lot more bloated.

The most exciting thing I've seen in a long time is the PS3.  Video content is finally moving into the hands of the audience, the way music moved to Mp3 a few years ago. This will probably hurt movie theaters.
