OT - Hey Bill

[cdub1988]

Camino is pretty slick.

I d'loaded Safari and Camino.


Side by side, at first take, I have to say Camino is seeing a good deal more use.

('course I've been sentimental to Mozilla for awhile)

It renders pages I would say at least twice as fast as Safari does on my machine (that's just my take) and I like the fact that it supports tabbed browsing and popup killing just as Safari does.  

to the Camino project.

Take care.

I'd like to try Camino. What is the latest build? I found 0.7 that came out in March.

Gary S -

0.7 is the latest build I saw.

That's what I running.  

Take care.

Yeah Chris.!.
So far I like Camino.
Loads -all sorts of whatever- faster than IE and Safari on my boxes.
Something I noticed the other day though.
In just about any of the other browsers somewhere you can 'view' the loading process of files,pages etc. Either at the bottom of a page for example or up in the address bar.
Haven't been able to find the on/off switch for that feature in Camino.  
For myself being on dialup,that is kind of a 'watch-must-have' feature. Meaning if -whatever- is too large .... later gator,when I have more time.

Bill -

I guess I'm not sure what you're referring to.

Are you referring to a status bar at the bottom of the browser window (which on the edition I have shows a bar similar to Mozilla with progress meter on the right-hand side of the bar and a written status on the left-hand side).

Outside of that, Camino has it's own Download manager window (though it's not called that - that's a Mozilla thingy) that will allow you to bring to front to see the status.

Nothing out front right away, you're right, but I look at the status bar and normally I've got d'loads running in the background.

'Course, I'm on DSL at home and a dedicated circuit at work, so I don't have to worry about the dial-up problem. TOTALLY understand that issue, though, Bill, and can totally sympathize.

I did it for so long and finally took the plunge as my contract came up and jumped on Bell's $34.95 deal.

Works well.

My wife really likes it, but she doesn't understand why Mozilla is so much faster than IE (on the PC side, AND rendering on the Mac side - takes more to get the engine up on the Mac).......

Told her I thought it was great that she could use Mozilla.

I'm the M$ Police in our casa.

Take care, Bill.

Chris.
Say you click into this.
With IE you have the progress [status] on how the page is loading at the bottom.
Safari is the same basically plus up in the address the bar slowly loads overlapping the url.
I haven't found a way to 'view' such a feature in Camino (if there is one) yet.

Now hush up on that speed-o internet talk. <gr>
What do you guys care.
Ya got it in a flash anyways.
