Review - Pale Moon
9.1 (Jan 24, 2012)

a thousand apologies for not remembering which, i installed pale moon on a 32 bit system and a 64 bit system. one or the other smoked, while one was comparable to the nightly. but try it, you may be very pleasantly surprised.

1065 has been out for a whole day. someone at betanews is slackin'! by far and away the best browser.
Review - Opera for Windows
11.00 Build 1045 Alpha (Nov 2, 2010)

i can tweak ff to the way i like it, but opera is perfect/super fast right out of the box. chrome is fast, but i can't tweak the ui like i can opera. the best browser just keeps getting better.
Review - Microsoft Internet Explorer v9 for Windows 7 (64-bit)
9.0.7930.16406 Beta (Sep 15, 2010)

thanks very much for the heads up on flash, wiseolcat. ie still won't be replacing opera or ff anytime soon, but ie9 is worlds better than ie5 (when i gave up on ie). there's a lot of wasted screen realestate at the top, and i'd really prefer a separate tab bar at the bottom of the screen. but ie9 seems snappier than ie8 (with the same addons/accelerators. perhaps ie10 will truly start competing with modern browsers.

that's not even close to a lucid analogy. i can only assume you work for a tablet manufacturer. or mommy and daddy bought you one to show off to your bff's. at any rate, your infantile response speaks volumes to your inferior intellect.

there's simply no reason for an individual to buy a tablet of any brand for any reason. if you're in a manufacturing environment, or a hospital, doctor's office, maybe there's an application. but if it doesn't include a phone and fit in my pocket (san francisco guys can maybe put one in their purse), i won't be buying one.
Comment - How much more are you willing to pay Netflix?
9.0.7930.16406 Beta (Jul 12, 2011 - 6:23 PM)

there's a much better selection of dvd's versus streaming only. i won't pay netflix any more than i do now, so if i had to make a choice, i'd choose dvd's.
Comment - Pale Moon 5 outshines sibling Firefox 5
9.0.7930.16406 Beta (Jun 26, 2011 - 9:00 AM)

pale moon is a terrific browser, though i haven't tried it since the early developers' editions. i can't recall which, but on either my 32 bit or 64 bit machine, pale moon was very noticeably faster than the ff nightly. and on one or the other, there didn't seem to be much difference. regardless, great project, and well worth a try.
Comment - Can it be 8 out of 10 Mac owners don't use anti-malware software?
9.0.7930.16406 Beta (May 26, 2011 - 10:04 AM)

macs are absolutely no more secure than the pc. if macs had 90 percent of the os share, they'd be every bit as constantly under attack. if you're a malware writer (the lowest one celled life form on earth), why waste your time on 10 percent of the market?
