The first thing I had planned to do was change the default browser over to
Konqueror because that was the only useful browser in Mandriva and Ubuntu
7.10, HOWEVER I was totally amazed in Ubuntu 8.04 that Firefox 3 was so much
more stable and useful than Firefox 2 ever was. Although Konqueror is
available, I have not as yet gone to "Settings", "KDE components", "Default
Applications" to change it! Firefox displays faster and better ordered now
than Konqueror does and I have not so far found a site it doesn't display!
Impressed me!
