: Am I the only one around here that prefers a text only interface to the 
: net?  Just curious.

i like to have a choice. i have 2.1 so the amosaic version i can run is a 
bit unstable. i use alynx 99% of the time because it is fast and stable. 
i would much rather sit back and tap keys to move around then keep 
grabbing my rodent and positioning it constantly. i have it set up to 
save pics i view and grab all inlines if i want. i mail from it. read 
news. in short, it works great for my purposes. i use napsa as the font 
and it is easy to read. 

i have mpegs working with mpeg_play but i want to show them on the wb 
screen in 1/4 size. any ideas? any good qt viewers other then xanim?
