Regardless of what Sun tries to tell us, image processing is still
performed by the local CPU, not the network. Thus, the decoding
process is not a network access. Want to redesign datatypes so that
they can process a data stream instead of a file? A lot of people
would be extremely grateful.

Uhhuh. ClassAct certainly doesn't stop you "patching" editing
hooks, witness Voodoo, where NewEdit works perfectly. The form gadgets
in AWeb, however, are not parts of ClassAct.

Try it yourself. In my tests of pages with a lot of inlined images,
AWeb won Mindwalker by a slight margin, while on large text-only pages
the difference was more significant. I can not test IBrowse since the
friendly developers refuse to let I-Net 225 users try their
software. Just as well, I guess, since I like my drives the way they
are.
