  Re: Help with Digital Photography
 
(...) I've just ordered a Nikon Coolpix 950. It matches almost my entire digital-camera wishlist (1), and has a superb macro mode. I'm hoping to get some great lego shots. (1) Wishlist: - Higher than 1024x768 resolution - nice LCD which can actually (...) (25 years ago, 3-Sep-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.publish, lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Opera Software browser (was: Re: MSIE5 security hole)
 
(...) Hmm, it's kind of crippled without cookie support, isn't it. Not that I'm a fan of the way so many sites mis-use cookies, but when they're used the right way, cookies are a goshdarn excellent browser feature. --Todd [followups to .publish] (25 years ago, 2-Sep-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, lugnet.publish)

(...) Knowing Mike (and Netscape), I think this was sarcasm. Personally, I prefer Mosaic for some things. Small, no install, no applets. I shall check out Opera soon. Cheers, - jsproat (25 years ago, 2-Sep-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, lugnet.publish)
 
  Opera Software's browser (was: Re: MSIE5 security hole)
 
(...) Hmm, there must be a way to turn off MDI. (But I didn't find one.) Mike? I do like the URL being at the bottom of the page rather than the top... :) But egad, just in the first 5 minutes I've noticed a couple really horrible flaws... Like, for (...)

(...) Yeah, it is fairly retro. (...) Nah, don't have time to play much anymore. That's why I've removed everything but 95/98/NT from my machines at home and at work. (25 years ago, 2-Sep-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, lugnet.publish)
 
  Re: MSIE5 security hole
 
(...) Yeah, ok. That's why every single point version since 4.5 has crashed on me multiple times within the first day of use, leading ultimately do its removal from my system. (...) Yup. Fast. (...) Makes no difference to me. I just want something (...) (25 years ago, 2-Sep-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, lugnet.publish)
 
  Re: MSIE5 security hole
 
(...) Yeahwell, Netscape has acted like a clogged toilet too, some times. But at least they've always worked hard to clear it out rather than stop it up more. :) (...) Hmm, sounds interesting. www.opera.com? I'll give it a try for a few days... (...) (25 years ago, 2-Sep-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, lugnet.publish)
 
  Re: MSIE5 security hole
 
(...) Man, I hate their user inteface. Very clumsy, ugly, and Windows 3.0-era. (MDI? Ugh.) Have you looked at any of the recent Mozilla devel milestones? It's obviously still pre-alpha, but coming along really nicely. (25 years ago, 2-Sep-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, lugnet.publish)
