Subject: RE: Tech: Max's Mudcat Labs (new feature testing)
ummmm... I, uh...collect 'em. I have 6 versions of Opera, 2 of K-Meleon, one Firefox, 'cause it fights me about allowing side-by-side versions, the final version of Netscape, one called Lunascape, which is quite interesting...one of Chrome, one of Comodo Dragon.... one little thing called "Off-by One", which is a sort of demo project, .....and somewhere there's an odd item called.....oh, yeah..Internet Explorer 6.

Why? Well, because I'm curious about the small (and large) changes they make, and I want browsers to do what *I* want. The newer ones have many nice tricks, but they often delete features I covet. (The trend seems to be to 'dumb-down' some of the advanced option, so as not to confuse folks.)
Now, 95% of my use is between the 2 latest Operas and Firefox...but Lunascape is fascinating, though it has crashed a couple times. It has more options than anything I have ever seen.

And in THIS case, I found some strange differences in how they render Max's features.

(a boy needs a hobby to keep him off the streets)

Don't ask how many file managers I have...
