[QUOTE="gilesjuk, post: 382585, member: 29394"] The only fair test is the same browser on different OSes with the same settings. Images are typically cached, if one browser has better caching, a larger cache or different settings then the speed will be different. Some browsers check for a new version of the image based on date and then show a cached version if the dates match. Personally I use Firefox and it flies on this Macbook. If you have a weak graphics card and the eyecandy is high on OSX but low on Windows then Windows will be faster. [/QUOTE]
