Hi people,<br>
<br>
I am seriously thinking about switching to Google Chrome or Firefox.<br>
I use Internet Explorer 8, and I tested all 3 of them recently. The<br>
fonts look better on good old Internet Explorer, and I'm also used to<br>
it, after switching from Netscape about 10 years ago. But, the<br>
problem is I can't see pictures on my newsletters on Gmail. I checked<br>
Google Chrome and Firefox, to my surprise both of them show the<br>
pictures without problems, only with Internet Explorer I can't see<br>
pictures, which is very frustrating. I'm thinking maybe this is<br>
because I'm using HTTPS and not HTTP. I don't know why I can't see<br>
the pictures on Internet Explorer, but it looks much better with<br>
pictures. The problem is that I prefer the fonts of Internet<br>
Explorer, and I also use other websites, such as my bank, and I didn't<br>
check them with Google Chrome and Firefox. It's much easier for me to<br>
use Internet Explorer, if I can just solve the pictures issue, or<br>
maybe use Google Chrome only to view my newsletters. I'm in a<br>
dilemma. I hate Microsoft, I like open source, but I don't like to<br>
use inferior software. What do you think?<br>
<br>
My operating system is Windows XP. Sorry - no open source OS for me<br>
yet. I'm waiting for Google OS - maybe I'll switch in a few years. I<br>
can't use ubuntu etc. - too complicated for me, not compatible with<br>
other computers etc. I'm also using MS Word, Excel and Access - I<br>
can't stop using them right now.<br>
