Opera releases 'The fastest browser for Mac'. Yesterday, Opera released The fastest browser for Mac [their words]. I'm going to give it a try... The Mac OS X version is still in beta.... [Duncan's Jotter]

OK, this is an attempt to post from Opera 5 for the Mac. Fingers crossed!

Yay! It worked!! Cool!!! Mac IE5.1 may well get the order of the boot.

I'm behind a firewall/proxy server at work today. Will this work?

later... not yet!

even later... still no!

guess what!?

will this work?

Yes, it did. Part of the magic is at system/pages/prefs?page=4.6.

Another part of the magic is in Mac IE5.1 Edit -> Preferences -> Proxies and then to include 127.0.0.1 in the list of sites I want to connect to directly.

I'm sure there's probably some Radio docs about this... ;-)

Mac NN4.08 seems to cope OK without an explicit 'bypass' for 127.0.0.1 [and it's a darn site faster since it doesn't have the Mac IE 'unyielding bug'.

I think the byline 'Navig8, Aggreg8, Syndic8, and Radio8' just about sums it up ;-)
