Adventures with Computers

My father has just got a new processor: a AMD Athlon 700 MHz. We had a 450 MHz Pentium III before, so our new system is almost twice as fast as the old. This is also reflected in the timings from prime95, where the time for 100 iterations is roughly halved.
I’m looking forward to see, how this new monster-maschine will effect the position of maxon.
I’ve just started to use the preview release of Netscapes new browser: Navigator v. 6
So far it looks like a really fine piece of software — it has a nice look, and things like my IntelliEye mouse-wheel works.
But strangly enough it can’t display the pop-up menus on my site :-( This is rather disappointing, since I found the menu-component at Netscape! But, who knows? I hope they will have it fixed in the next beta.
See? It actually works! :-)
