Hey I was fine with jumpers. Plug and pray is dodgy. I had no problems installing
my own drivers. My computer deciding to do things to "help" me when I didn't
ask for help is alarming, intrusive and unproductive.

That's what I love about browers. IE is better except where it's wrong, Opera
is better and faster except whee it doesn't work. Firefox is trensy but apart
from that I see no reason to use it.

Doesn't matter to me, stuff has to work in all 3, period. I use Opera because
I can get my work done faster with it than any other browser.
