I declined my plan to buy licence after I discovered that linux-opera runs under linux emulation faster and takes ~3MB less memory than native version. They have long way to go before I reconsider buying the licence. The system I discovered it on is 133Mhz Pentium, 64MB memory and runs -current, so it's enough slow as it is, and the difference in linux-opera and native version comes out very sharp. -- Vallo Kallaste To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
