Ok, my 2=C2=A2 worth.

I turn flash off on all the browsers I use, I find it irritating and
slows things down. All I seem to lose is a few animated jokes and a load
of adverts - maybe its the websites I visit.

I agree linuxemu is the only practical way to get a "fully compliant brow=
ser
experience".

Having said this I shall contadict it, If abaco had css (en route) and if
webfs has a good cache then I would be fine for 95% of my needs. In its
present form I use it for (say) 40% of the time. This is actually more to=
 do
with its performance (much of which appears to be the lack of a cache).

I vote 1 for abaco for most stuff, and firefox under linuxemu for accessi=
ng my bank.

I want my cake and eat it.
