I dont want to press alt+tab... i can press ctrl+tab to go through tabs though. doesn't it make more sense to use the tab key for tabs? I use the tabs all the time, especially for going through this forum... go to the main page, middle click the forums, read through the posts, refresh the first page to see if anything else have been posted since I arrived... tabbing is nice, and having internet explorer open several times takes up more memory.

mozilla, in my experience, does not have its own holes.

HEY HEY HEY..........OK Maybe. If we are talking about size.

SuSE is only major Linux Distro that hasn't cut down to three ISO's yet, it is still at FIVE CD's :eek:

That is because it comes with so much....Stuff   :rolleyes:   you can only get through looking at half the apps that come with SuSE before their two year support cycle is up!

Hey people, is size the only issue here? GNU/Linux comes with just about every piece of software one needs. Software that will not be available even on M$ Winbloze version 2500, if they still exist by then.

Think about the Operating System's Architecture first. That is what matters most of all. I'm way too bored to write down everything that I want here, but here are 2 articles for you that you should all read, and read carefully.

Thins one explains in a few words why Winbloze is nothing more than an utter joke of a so-called OS.

And this one is an M$ security bulletin M$ should have issued but didn't.   :D  

Enjoy!

PS. Both articles come from Scott Granneman of SecurityFocus....

I guess the trick is finding a keyboard with F14 on it then.

Of course mozilla has holes, just not ones that can TAKE OVER THE HOLE SYSTEM, no winXP has a ver hard time running on p2's, well I find so.... and LOTS of people care about tab browsing, its just easier and works better.  But someone with XP is always gonna be behind the times.

I not going to defend Microsoft, but that's bullshit. I can run Windows XP on a Pentium-MMX with 200 MHz. It's really the RAM that counts when it comes to Windows XP, and if you can adjust the default settings (which slow down the computer, and I'm not talking about the visual style and effects) just right, then it runs at an acceptable level.
