hmm...

I gave it a go recently on a couple of different machines, and yes, it's one of the best browsers I've ever used, and for LTSP it would be perfect, but, as has been my experience with all mozilla-based browsers ever, it falls over far too often for my liking.

Randomly bombing out every now and again is not behaviour I look for in a piece of software!

Of-course this could purely be down to an insufficient amount of testing thusfar (we have to remember it's a 0.5 release after all), so hopefully a stable version will be available soon enough, and at that point I'll be ditching opera.

Galeon is based on Gecko using a Gnome interface. Phoenix is pared to the

parts of the OS divide. For something officially 0.5, it's enormously
stable.

Its focus on lightness and speed (and therefore small memory footprint)
probably make it ideal for LTSP users.

So what is the difference between Galeon and Phoenix?  They are both
Mozilla based?

Just curious..

Mozilla -> Galeon -> Opera -> Phoenix was my path, and
