- You can turn off the big animation in the upper left-hand corner
- (check the ibrowse preferences). You can change the MUI "active"
- animation to something less CPU intensive.

- IBrowse is the only Amiga browse that lets me make effective use of a
- 1024x768 screen without going to incredibly long lines or large fonts.
- Turn off the animation, move the fastlinks & command buttons to the
- side (I put one set on either side), and the vertical real estate used
- for is pretty minimal - one line for URL, and one line for messages
- (hmm; I want to try moving other parts of the display around, but need
- a valid copy to try it - I'm not going to backdate my system for
- this). The fastlink and control buttons wind up in the horizontal
- space, which is not a rare commodity on that screen.
