People that use IE...are just....

So you use IE? Wait nm, you must be a super user of IE. Maybe even an uber user of IE

On September 1st the European Commission is going to vote a revised version of the European Patentability rules. The proposed revision contains a set of serious challenges to Open Source development since regulation regarding software patents will be broadly extended and might forbid independent development of innovative (Open Source and not) software-based solutions.

The European Open Source community is very concerned about the upcoming new regulation and has organized a demo protest for August 27, asking Open Source supporting sites to change their home pages to let everyone know what is going on at the European Parliament. The Apache Software Foundation has decided to support this initiative, and this is why you are seeing this page.

eh?
 
bah ie loads the fastest in windows, because its built in and in ram when the machine boots up. When i use windows, i use ie. Good multimedia/xml/activex support. That being said windows is not my os of choice
 
as halik says, IE loads initially the fastest because it's put into ram upon bootup. Mozilla Firebird initially takes much longer to start, but once it's in RAM it launches new instances immediately and loads pages much faster. in this case i think the initial time investment is well worth it.
 
Opera rocked but it always made my computer freeze. I'm on Netscape and Firebird now. Can't stand IE. It's just so...PLAIN...
 
I used Firebird... well it's not bad, but there's two things I want to see with it before I keep it:
1) Google toolbar.
2) the ability to open several websites within the same instance of the window (i'd rather click the webpages docked near my google toolbar than rather click each instance of Fbird in the taskbar.

Other than that, I love it's load time and it's image load time as well. :beer:

ummm... theres tabs, and you can set google as your default search engine so if you type in regular words into the search box you get returns from google. then you can use the sidebar to switch between them.

apparently firebird users aren't particularly bright either

I thought Using Firebird would keep all instances of a webpage within one browser window (but in layers). Similar like in Word (older versions) where you could open 4 documents at the same time and they would all be within one instance of Word, not in four seperate Word windows. Make any sense?

Right now it can be recreated in Mozilla by pressing CTRL+N (new window). I thought that if you created a new window the webpage would load as another "tab" in the same instance in Mozilla; instead it simply actually creates a new window by creating a new instance of mozilla.

where's the sidebar and I'm set. I just installed it about 4 min ago, if it can replace IE by all means. the loading time on this browser is insanely fast.
