[QUOTE="Matt, post: 46978"] Thanks for that, I have a laptop (Wintel), that never connects to 56K, of which I have seen at 19K, but didn't affect the speed much at all. Anyway, I re-installed Panther again, IE is now at a usable state, but Safari doesn't load anything in a bearable amount of time now. Anyway, I'll see how my Mac experience goes from here, but it has sadly been a bit of a pain since day one with simple things. For example, I had 10.1.5, and the internet wouldn't connect at all at first, to get it right it took me about a week. I have, although, become very attached to this computer. I love the look of it, and love the look of the OS. It just is depressing when you see of what I had higer hopes on to fall into the "nusience" catigory. I think things will be OK from here on (I hope), well at least with IE. Maybe that Java update has something to do with it. I use top-up internet so downloading to the latest (10.3.5) is too difficult for now. Anyway, I like my Mac, but I am dissapointed for now, because it just hasn't been this, but a series of problems since I bought it two or three weeks ago. I will let you know how I go. [/QUOTE]
