I go where the browser performance takes me. Heck, I'm one of 9 people
worldwide who actually paid good money for Netscape back in "94".
When Netscape became a hog, I went back to IE. When Firefox matured
I moved on. There are signs that the Firefox/Quicktime combo are
developing
cracks as far as odd crashes here and there. As Safari matures I will
give
it a try.
As for a circa 2000 OS, it has served me very well! Several system HDD
upgrades
without a single OS reinstall. OT, I use Audacity to process loads of
old
field recordings of eastern KY fiddlers and folk singers. This old P4
Asus PC
has only let me down once. That was last week. I truly thought the
system HDD
really died. Rarest of rare, it turned out to be a failed IDE cable.
Just sign me,
