It was pretty okay. Even the critical pages for Links like Ebay and Amazon were displayed and usable. Sure missing JS is a drawback, but regarding Atari browsers netsurf would be a big step forward as it supports ssl and the only atari browser (beside links what has other issues like not being able to write special signs like @, problem with downloads..) that uses ssl currently is cab and this one is 11 years old and rendering and speed are too!

I don't notice any significant difference with Firefox. Anyway, Netsurf would certainly be interesting to see running on the Atari. JFL -- Jean-François Lemaire
