But I still prefer Opera

Pirates, vampires, zombies, ninjas, ghouls, aliens, goblins, monsters, robots, sorcerers, undead, werewolves, demons, mutated dinosaur-cyborgs and those pesky phone salesmen! The shotgun is a one-size-fits-all solution!

Try Firefox! It's amazingly customizable! Opera's better than IE, too, though.

I know we're drifting off topic again here, but the thing I like about Opera is the ability to zoom the entire page, images, text and frames - handy for high resolution displays. Having said that, Firefox is my browser of choice, being highly configurable (extensions, toolbars, window sessions, tabs etc) and it's a bit more standards-compatible.
Once I think of a plus point for IE i'll let you know.

Sadly, the plus point of IE is the same of the entire microsoft output: things are made for them. There are websites that get all messy if you aren't on IE, but things were worse, and the other browsers have improved much on that issue. Today I install Firefox on new computers of the family (or re-installations of windows), disappear with the IE link and rename the Firefox one to "INTERNET"i'm_melting_i'm_melting wrote:I know we're drifting off topic again here, but the thing I like about Opera is the ability to zoom the entire page, images, text and frames - handy for high resolution displays.

(or both?) Jim... you never cease to land just the right punch line, square in the guts. Actually, if the truth be known it is all related to my girlfriend... in which case; I think I am falling in love.
...okay, I just went ahead and said the pansiest thing anyone can say. Now I must go watch some football or something...-Cub. =o)
Just one little obervation, and I'll quit flooding the board with my messages. Two, actually. What I'm going to do here is unprecedented.Cubase wrote: Now I must go watch some football or something...

One, this message is to Cub...
I just wanted to let you know, I figured out that if you want to look or sound manly, period, all you have to do is play the old NFL stock music that they use for thier flashbacks. I have a bisexual friend, (Who, not that it matters, but, who is bisxual and I am not.. not! NOT! God he like rolls his eyes everytime I make that perfectly clear ... Am I homophobic? No I'm same gender gentaliaphobic. ) and I played that as I told his life story, and much to his chagrin, it actually made him sound manly. Good ole NFL Stock Film Footage Music. For the man in all of us.
And finally message two, to Jen! Yes I am answering your post in one thread, in a completely different thread! Why, because ... I have no clue. I like to disrupt things I guess ... So .. anyway ... have you ever ... noticed .. I love ... to ... use ... the period ... but always ... in a combination of three???
Yeah, I guess I will hang around here a bit now that I'm unemployed. It's not like I was fired or anything like that. I just, decided that I'm not the kind of person who wants to be behind the wheel of an eighteen wheeler, and have the lives of everyone I drive by constantly in this profession, in my hands. To much responsibility. If I were to kill someone, or hurt someone, I'd never forgive myself. So I decided to switch out from and 18 wheeler semi, to a smaller version of one, a straight truck. They're smaller, more manuverable, and I feel more comfortable behind the wheel on one. I have more control it seems. But oh, do I know what the depression thing is like. I thought I'd enjoy having time off, and let me tell you, it's not like the vacation I thought'd be. I'm bored off my rocker.
But yes, I'm here to shed my very own unique view of lovliness on the board once more.
Mr. Malloy: Is this a good thing for the Tex Murphy board? It depends on how you look at me I guess. If you find me funny, and I bust your gut sometimes, then yes, enjoy my new found freedom with me. If you think I waste space by typing inane dialouge, then no, you're going to be like "Get a job Bum!" ... Either way Mr. Malloy is here, and will be here for a very, very ...long time. And that's the bottom line ... because Mr. Malloy said so. If you smell what he's cooking. Enough is enough and it's time for a change, because I'm the best there is, the best there was, and the best there ever will be. Have a nice day!
That's how you cut a promo. Okay time to get some lunch, and look through the wanted ads.
