Hey now... You Linux Browser Bunnies!


Brian Ritz might be a tough judge of Linux BROWSERS!
He mentioned that he was having trouble viewing the
http://www.espn.com with Linux browsers.  KDE v3.0
appears to have answered Brian's call!!!  Here is
one for you to test!

The 4/8/2002 issue of E-Week (page 1 & 14) did a
review of KDE v3.0 and they say that Brian's dreams
have come true!  Konqueror v3.0 will display that
sports information web site without a problem.

Hope KDE has delivered a competitive and full featured
desktop to help Linux overtake that territory from M$!

KDE v 3.0 REVIEW
==========================================================
"Much improved in Version 3.0 is Konqueror - KDE's
combination web browser / file manager / file preview
application - particularily in the areas of JavaScript
and Dynamic HTML support.  In E-Week Lab's tests,
Konqueror rendered sites we've found chronically finicky
to browsers other than Internet Explorer, such as
www.espn.com."

Anyone out there using KDE v3.0 yet?

PS - How does ESPN.com look in Lynx?   ;-)  It crashes 
my M$ PC running Netscape v3.0 (Win v3.1) every time!!!
