hmmm, its all very subjective isnt it?
for example, i prefer the way that V has dithered the V logo than the
stippled dithering of IB. However, as has already been discussed V's
dithering is fine for artwork (gives it a oil-brush style deco) whereas
for photo images the IB stipples give a much better result.

hope you've set your machine like mine where you dont have to redial to go
back online... just let the amiga reboot, then fire up Miami and click
online... it picks up the still-present connection
PS have you got TTFonts running for your Voyager?

in terms of web browsing you can certainly compare abilities of showing
pages though! (I'm not fussed about printing pages, but I'd certainly want
to save a page to disk) .
