Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Then stop calling it Turbo, please.
The fact that it probably should be ticked by default is another issue. Or that there's an even an option... But thanks for pointing it out.

Of course, there are other reasons people prefer Opera. I did spend some weeks using Mozilla on Linux - it felt like a big step backwards, with so many two-key shortcuts that Opera does in one, and for the SDI* model that divides followers (Opera, as you know uses an MDI model).

It could be argued that non-free software helps make free software better. But I wasn't going to argue that; just mention that it could be argued.

FWIW, my online banking probably won't work with Moz - they explicitly say no support for Netscape 6[link|http://www.stgeorge.com.au/code/int_bank/about/supported_browsers.asp|on the page] and that would probably mean Moz, too. It doesn't work for Opera, but that's okay - I can and do use their telephone system instead. OTOH, I have emailed them asking them to please improve their standards compliance so that they won't have to be so fussy. I should email them again just so they know I'm still waiting.

* I got it right this time, CRC!

New I call it Turbo
because that's what it used to be called in previous builds.

Bite me :-)

It's not ticked by default because it uses a lot of memory. At least with Mozilla you get the choice; most of Internet Explorer is loaded at all times whether you like it or not.

New Right. Consider yourself bitten.
*MUNCH!*

[grin]

Interesting trade-off, memory for speed... Hmm.

New To be fair, You're both right

I used to use rot-13, but I decided I needed something at least twice as strong. So now I use rot-26 to encode all of my transmissions.
