Browser Issues

At work… Have to stick in Windows.
Tried Google Wave in Windows2003… Tested Some browser for wave:
Old IE6, Safari, Konqueror(KDE4 bin), FireFox3.5, Opera10, Chrome.
I see no reason for keeping a *modern* IE in my PC. I keep IE6 only for evil ActiveX.

Wave performance

Wave!

  • IE6: Not working
  • Safari: Well enough
  • Konqueror: not working
  • Firefox: Working but draws all CPU time like hell
  • Opera10: Slow, almost broken
  • Chrome: Better than Safari

Proxy Issue

For working PC I'm in Windows and behind firewall.

  • IE6: good enough
  • Safari: good enough
  • Konqueror: Not friendly on Windows
  • Firefox: Perfect with plugins
  • Opera10: No socks proxy setting… This means stuff like irc not useable be4ind firewall
  • Chrome: Sux, no intensive configuration. hard to get the Chrome installer working be4ind firewall, I use Chrome portable.

For some wicked reason proxy support is sooooo important for Chinese.

My pick

No matter how slow it is, I'll have to stick in FireFox, and use Chrome for Waving…
