What a nice product. If we could have had it six months ago it would have
dominated the Amiga market. Two points about image loading speed in comparison
to IBrowse: (1) The pre-release version of IBrowse is limited to four threads.
We don't know how much faster it will be when that limit is removed. (2) The
incremental image display on IBrowse makes it *feel* faster subjectively, just
like the way Macintosh windows were animated to make the old 68000 machines
seem to be doing something. That would be a nice feature for AWeb.
