Personal nu agreez "platformele", si cu atat mai mult pe cele in linie de comanda. Dupa aproape 37 de ani de lucru pe diverse domenii de activitate (si software!) lucrez la un proiect de viitor extrem de interesant.

It's not meant to be a feature-rich browser like Firefox. It can run on a PDA for crying out loud! The current version is perfect for old computers -- it gives you an experience somewhere between a CLI browser and Firefox or Opera.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1568130245619806374.post-9769752064923325692008-07-17T22:05:00.000+03:002008-07-17T22:05:00.000+03:00Galeon is a dead project.
