[thelist] Which browsers to download for testing

[Bob Boisvert]

Thanks to all with your suggestions.  Unfortunately I only have one machine
(unless the wife lets me buy a couple more....yah, right!) and my system
resources are starting to slow down as it is with what I'm running for
programs.

Does anyone have any good FREE suggestions for programs to clean up my HDD
without me having to worry about what it's going to delete?

Thanks again,
Bob

...Well I don't know about limiting it to 3, but if you have
...to, I'd say Netscape 6.1/6.2, Ie 5.5 and either NS 4, or
...Opera 5/6 depending on your needs.
...
...Personally, I'd get more than three if I were you. My bare
...minmum for working with (which is what I have since I can't
...afford the downloads for more) is Ns 4, IE 5.5 and 6 (on 2
...seperate computers on a LAN), N6.0, N6.1, Op5, Op6, Lynx.
...If I did have the download, i'd get N6.2, the latest Moz,
...and probably a screen reader too...
...
...BTW, if you do get Opera, Netscape and IE, you can probably
...get opera 5 and 6.. they both run extremely tidily..
...they're only a few meg each and they don't use anywhere
...near as much memory as the big two.
...
...HTH
