probably, cause it was built by a computer genius in the late year of 2006 and it also has RoadRunner and is ran on windows xp professional...
(this guy makes a lot of money selling and fixing computers)

either way, its still a mac.

Firefox, no doubt better then any other.

Faster, less memory, east to navigate.



I like to thank Frogman for making my awesome sig!

Macs are graphic design computers.
as for browsers it's down to personal choice realy. it also depends what you use it for, You can't say one is better overall because they balance each other out in features.

Well as I stated previously I like IE a bit over FF...simply because my mother and sister-in-laws missions in life are to send me jokes and massive e-mail.

I can't copy/paste this from FF...and so when I check my e-mail(150 yesterday) I often have to switch browsers to take care of things.

i would not survive if it werent for adblock plus and no script..
but the major flaw of ff is that not all websites support it. and doing html is a pain with ff as well

yesterday IE exploded when i tried using it. I got over 100 browsers of IE that came from no where.
using macs as a graphic computer is pointless, cause i couldnt even copy the diablo picture from D2Sector. or atleast the one i used, which they told me theirs was pretty new.

Firefox = epic win

IE = Epic Fail

Those of you using internet explorer, *** help you the day your pc explodes and kills you.

Dude...trust me...I can't...there is no option for *paste* after I copy an e-mail while on Mozilla.....there just isn't...select all is what I get.Then it copies the whole freaking thread>.<

This tends to be annoying when trying to post...I run back and forth from Mozilla...to e-mail...then to Explorer....I can copy/paste anything but e-mail... I will give my Mom your address ..hopefully she bugs YOU and NOT me >.<

dude, pam, Lmao.
try, not right clicking.

do this instead, highlight everything you want, press "control" "c".
the go to the page you want, and press "control" "v".
control = ctrl - on a key board

Are you that retarded? Now I can see why you don't like mac's, you didn't even give them a try. You hold down a key on the keyboard when you click, and thats right clicking. Mighty Mouses have a right click built into them anyways, at least mine does.

You can't blame the mac on the fact you don't know how to use a program

Fire Fox for me is great. its faster. functions better.

IE Explorer just shutsdown out of nowhere and has so many illegal operations its not even funny.

The ONLY downside to firefox is that u sometimes cant view some pages properly kinda like the glow username on this page, but i dont really care about seeing something shinier. big whoop.

Firefox Hands down
Netscape after that
Then IE Exploder,, sorry i meant explorer
