What browser do you use?
I use firefox exclusively, but when I make an update to the website I check it in IE as well. I'm surprised how different the site looks between the two browsers.
They're very similar, but some little things are different. I don't know why, it's just how it is. Anyway, I'm just curious to know what the users of GasSavers use, and if you havn't tried firefox yet, maybe it's time to give it a try... <script type="text/javascript"><!-- google_ad_client = "pub-4790368784617558"; google_ad_width = 468; google_ad_height = 60; google_ad_format = "468x60_as_rimg"; google_cpa_choice = "CAAQ8aaVzgEaCPJg3qtkyXM9KOm293M"; //--></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script> |
opera
I use Opera. I've had bad luck with Firefox. Once it installed itself in my root directory, then on the desktop. I was like WTF?!?!
A year ago I was not able to go "anywhere" on the net and reliably have pages work. I still have to use IE sometimes... |
Stuck with IE 6.0
For work, I'm required to use IE 6.0 at 128-bit encryption, so I'm stuck. I've tried Opera, but it confused the works, so I'm sticking with IE until otherwise directed.

I just started using Opera
I just started using Opera last weekend. Opera doesn't seem to work to well on this site though. The recent posts don't seem to update themselves until I hit refresh. I've even clicked on a topic that showed a new post and had to refresh inside the thread for the new post to show up. I use IE6 when I'm on this site. Opera seems to be faster everywhere else.

I hate AOL with passion.
I hate AOL with passion. When I used to have their internet they couldn't resolve problems right away. They had to have their super techs call us a month later. On my aunt's laptop she had AIM and her laptop barely went online. As soon as we removed it, it got fast right away.
The only thing I like about AOL is their AIM, otherwise I hate it. |
all three browsers
all three browsers (fire,opera,IE) variety is the spice of life.

Firefox for no reason
Firefox for no reason really. Just joining the fad.

Baud
I'm using Comp-U-Serve on my Commodore 64 at 2400 baud. It can get a a gassavers page downloaded in about 2-3 hours, or get into the bulletin boards pretty fast!

Of course that BBS ran on a 386 DX (no math co-processor!) 16mhz with a 20meg HDD. Of course compared to your Commodore 64 my machine was SCREAMING! |

Tell me about it. I was struggling to print reports for high school on the Commodore "Windows" called "Geos" and saving them on 5.25" floppies and the dot-matrix printer. Then the folks got an IBM 486 SX with Windows 3.11 for Christmas after a few years. Holy crap, I could play graphic-intense games like Flight-Sim and Sim City, and blazing-fast Internet, MS Word (with spell check ?!?), better printing. I was finally in the 90's! My friend's Dad worked for Radio Shack, so they always had the latest computer, dammit (and the best games). But, for 2 months, we had the faster computer, Hahahaha! Of course, they wouldn't have that, so they bought a 486 with a huge 250 MB HDD. Then the Pentium era hit, and I started building my own during college (then started a computer repair and network install biz in '99 -- with my friend that always had the computers) Mistake #1: don't go into biz with friends; #2, if you have a full-time job, and the business is sucessful, something's gotta give or you hire employees -- basically gave up on it and went into medicine (and my friend dropped the ball on his share of working -- hence rule #1). Still friends though, the biz made some extra bux, and good lessons were learned. My folks hung on to that 486 until 2001 ("but we paid a lot of money for that!") Well, it's a great doorstop now Pops, in response to, "why won't anything run on this???". Yeah, they still don't really get computers. Ugh, the viruses and spyware infestation was disgraceful this last visit. They burnt up an HDD because of a virus. Those kids just aren't careful... RH77 |
my slowest computer ever was
my slowest computer ever was a 300mhz pentium 2 proc.
It's still in my room just sitting there. My new computer was custom build, the only thing that was taken from the old one was 54x cd rom drive, floopy, speakers, keyboard, mouse, and printer. The speakers blew, got some new ones, the mouse sucked got a new one. The printer and keyboard are still from original computer, 1998. The computer I have now should last me 5-6 years easy. The old one was slow but this one is fast, I don't need anything faster. |
Slowest Computer
First computer -- 1984. The Commodore VIC 20. 5K bytes of RAM, and if I wanted to save anything, I had to borrow my cousin's cassette tape drive. It hooked right into the TV like my Atari!
