But fully functioning? As in a complete solution, all featues there.

So your statement that voyager if far better than Ibrowse for image decoding
was not correct then. I agree that datatypes aren't the solution at the

Although all this is irrelevant because everyone should be going PPC and
getting a graphics card soon when OS4 and MorphOS. :-)
