This website says that opera ownz!

Personally I'ld go with internet exsporer 5.0 becuase I have a windows.

ADDITION:
Oh ya. How the glowing names thing doesn't work in FF is really annoying.
When I was a huge newb it was how I knew who actually posted and who didn't.

Browser speeds are one thing. Reliability, security, and displaying pages properly are others. The fact Opera and IE are faster is because they take some of the same shortcuts to display pages that may cause pages to be displayed improperly or may create backdoors in which hacks, viruses, and other harmful programs can get through.

Yeah, that fits under the 'doesn't display pages properly' catagory. Why the hell would a mac user use a Microsoft product on their mac in the first place? Use mac programs when they exist, it's better than going to a company that doesn't even know how to make a browser, let alone program it properly on another type of OS.

THe only Microsoft program I use is MS: Word. I'd like to use AppleWorks, or anything else Apple makes for a word processor, but the issue is that everyone I know uses MS: Word. Its just more of a hassle to try to get .doc files to work on AppleWorks than it is to just get Word for Mac.

But yeah, IE blows.

The only problem when displaying in IE is sometimes I see a black square on the side from something below being too wide.

All my pages load in less than 2 seconds. Now I said less. And also by the time I start actually looking its done.

LOL!

I dont measure mine, but i remember ShadowBrood saying his FF pages loaded .7!!! .7! YES, .7!

I click a link, I find some other interesting thing, so I come back and its done.
Less than 2 seconds is good. Least it isn't what it used to be with dialup: 15 seconds just to load a small page. Google wudda taken like 5 seconds. (Yes, my interent was that slow. Now I gots CABLE!!1!!!11)

I can't see the glow on my member title in Safari, but that doesn't mean I'm not gonna use it when I like it best above the others. I think you should use what you like. It is sad that you're basing it off of your glowing text.

So, I'm basing it off of what I feel like.
I like glowtext, and I obviously can't live without it.
Accept that fact.

I'm not lying, I'm just educated. And I care because I don't like viewing webpages all messed up and shit. Like I've always stated quality > quantity.

Pages dont mess up in Opera unless you suck at coding smile.gif

No, it happens. Back when I was making my own webpage I noticed a lot of crap that got messed up in IE and Opera but not a gecko based browser. After a while I got so fed up at having to program a webpage for all three I just put in a script that led people who visited it with IE or Opera to another page telling them the problems/insecurities and shit these programs take to display a page and a list of reasons why they should get Firefox/Mozilla/Netscape/Camino instead.

No one really knows about this crap untill they get a different browser through peer pressure or untill they start making a webpage and realize some people are complaining it looks like crap on another browser.

EDIT: And my webpage was perfectly W3 compliant.

EDIT2: Since I just realized you probably don't know what that means ... http://www.w3.org
