  • 20 Jan, 2005

I’ve been looking all over for a good Safari theme for Firefox and finally ran across one that has potential. Ran Aroussi has created a great Safari FireFox theme that has a lot going for it.

  • 13 Jan, 2005

I got my PilotMouse Optical Wireless just before Christmas and I was all excited. I got it at BestBuy and it was good deal. I really wanted a Logitech mouse, however I was looking at features and price. I wanted to spend under $30 and get wireless and optical. The more buttons the better too. […]

  • 4 Jan, 2005

Lately I’ve been running a version of Firefox optimized for the G5. [updated link] Now I’m not sure exactly how this works. Someone re-builds Firefox from the source given out by Mozilla.

Wanted: Site Map Software
