- Oh goodie, about 3 months ago when I was telling everyone how I had never had

- You got further than me! Mine wouldn't load any pages in, if it was off the
- web it would come back with a protocol error, if it was a localhost page it
- would just do nothing except use up most of the cpu time (jerky pointer, slow
- text etc). It lasted nearly 2 hours on my system. I'd rather use ALynx than
- this slow buggy pile of crap. (allegedly) I could have made it work with a bit
- of work, but is it worth it?
-
- Maybe if they tried to code a fast version then add all the (preferably
- switchable) gizmos rather than making it pretty then trying to speed it up.
-
- I'll prolly get flamed but that was my 3 pence worth.
