Yep... I live in the middle of nowhere so the options are: Dial-up or sattelite.
Dial-up won't do anything, but sattelite lags. (~1 sec average, for those of you who think 100ms is bad)
The only sattelite service in the area has a 200mb limit. (but it is upgradable, but it takes $$$)

as for a mini-fox, theres a 4.6Gb or so version.

Welcome lookitsan00b. I hope you enjoy Omnimaga.

Ranman wonders what lookitsan00b will call himself when he is no longer a noob.

there's always a higher n00b

No. It will not animate them at all. Also, my ISP ensures that I download NOTHING of any use on a pc. (I haz a download limit, 200Mb)

EDIT: wait... there's an IE9?

Woah, I thought the intermediate plans over here with 3 GB download limit were bad enough. Now 200 MB? O.o

And IE9 is still in beta, but I heard that some people were already using it fine.

Nemo, if it runs on IE6 engine, it will be 10x worse than IE8. Omnimaga is totally broken in IE6. Is there any tiny version of Firefox or something?

the IE6 engine != IE6. i've tested the world browser on omnimaga. does it display perfectly? no, but when i tested it in v2.6 it worked decently. gifs displayed, javascript was moderately parsed. i'm not sure if it'd be better than IE8 but it definitely isn't a bad choice. i'm downloading v3.0 now to affirm my thoughts.

Oh ok, I thought the IE6 engine was exactly the same thing IE6 itself used. In IE6, I remember Netham45 posting a rather horrendous screenshot of how Omnimaga looked like.

Or is "the IE6 engine" a totally different software that is totally unrelated to Microsoft's IE6?

I figure i'll always be a noob compared to somebody.

Btw, I've noticed that it seems that nobody noticed that the extra ram pages are missing from the "O" series as well.
Maybe nobody took time to update the list, maybe nobody knew/cared.

I think it's because the O line just came out. However, make sure to not confuse O with zero, though. If there seems to be only 4 digits and the last one is a 0, then it's definitively not a O model. Also don't say you will remain a n00b. You never know, you might pick up Axe and that stuff and eventually do high end stuff . Plus on United-TI forums there was a member called Newbie, who was not a newbie anymore, but decided to keep that nickname anyway. If you would like yours to be changed feel free to PM me (keep in mind this can cause a password reset, though, which will be sent via e-mail)

yeah, the world browser displays omnimaga well. the only problem being at the beginning of the page, there's 1/3 of a screen's height is just blank space, just a little annoying. this page full of screenshots loads a little slowly, but performs just as well as chrome when displaying them.

Ah that's good to hear, then. It seems less horrific than people experience when they actually used IE6 itself.

no, the IE6 engine is still Internet Explorer 6, made by microsoft. it's just the world browser has combed over the code and refined it.

unrelated, there's a chrome skin in the world browser... this is awesome.

0310 = March 2010, so somewhat new.

Well thats what the page said... May be wrong but idk.

I figure it wouldn't be a proper introduction without a game, would it?

Edit: Due to the lack of documentation, I must explain:

Type: BASIC
Goal: keep the dot on the screen.
Controls: Arrow keys push on dot, 2nd to operate most parts of the menus.
Challenging part: Gravity, increasing force of pushing on dot.
Options menu: this was added last, so it works a little different.
  Push 2nd on the item to select.
  On difficulty mode, the arrow will change to a ?, and you push up/down to change, 2nd to confirm. (will clear scores)
