Hi folks - just curious - which web browsers (if any) are people using with Vampire V2 A600s?

I've been screwing around a bit with NetSurf-AGA (no FPU) on my .. slow 28 mhz 68020 A1200..  and was just curious :)

well netsurf rtg (no Fpu) is still too slow to be usable even with a vampire , i can't imagine the pain with a 68020 :)

From what I've seen most still use Ibrowse and Aweb, both are heavily outdated.
Would be nice to see a fast and reasonable up to date browser on OS3.
Hope that the once the FPU on Vampire is implemented Netsurf will run ok/Fast enough.

I use iBrowse 2.4 but Aweb works perfectly too.

Thanks guys!  iBrowse is actually usable on the 68020 ..  NetSurf, not so much :).

I will give AWeb a try later today too..

Looking forward to Vampire A500/1200 :)
