Yiuel Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 The only reason why I switched to Firefox is because my IE didn't want me to see my gmail. I downloaded it, it worked, and I gradually got used to it. And, since then, I'm probably in heaven and don't realize it much. Oh well! (Oh, and I only pledged by IE before )Welcome!

CodeOptimist Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 Hi Sean! Care to elaborate on why you are so loyal to IE? Ouch, 28k is pretty slow. Hopefully you can move soon and get a better connection!Just curious, why do you have your monitor set to 1280x960? That's not quite a "standard" resolution.

av_nefardec Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 I also "resisted" IE for a while.I only started using Firefox because my IE developed some strange habits that were quite annoying.In the end I found that I liked firefox because of the extensions it has:I have a web dev extension that lets me see the CSS of pages really easily, and also various structural components.I have adblock which I can use so that I never have to deal with an unwanted banner ad ever again.I have chatzilla which lets me communicate on IRC.I have a free, built-in FTP extension (fireftp) since WS_FTP is no longer freeware.I've got a news reader built in.And a utility with which to check my bandwidth.I don't even use tabbed browsing.

King Tutankhamun Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 I read somewhere that Verizon was testing out fiber optic dsl in some town in Texas. If I remember is was only 45 a month and with that you got 15 megabit connection! But that is in testing phases in that town only. Welcome to wfg.

Red_08 Posted January 20, 2005 Share Posted January 20, 2005 Whoa, where did you say that was? *calls the moving company* Texas is pretty big, so it could really be hundreds of miles from here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
