That's awful. Let's see, with 6 other apps running (including iCab), my PB2400/G3-320 (8.6) gets Mozilla's browser window open in...uh oh...20 sec. Not so hot at sharing cpu time I guess. Maybe that's where the difference comes in. Quitting iCab, trying it again...still about 20 sec with 5 other apps running. But in my WallSt (now on the fritz with power problems), 'Zilla was been terrific. Gotta admit that iCab seems more appropriate for the comparatively tiny screen size of the Comet. Maybe I should try it in the CC/PPC too... That unseemly delay between the Mozilla splash screen's disappearance and the browser window's opening--about 8-9 seconds on this Comet? They will, I hope, fix that before long. BTW, anyone know why iCab lists two copies of the QT plugin when I have but one? Bob F -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
