Re: Apollo EECOM Re-designed Website

I too like the multi browser approach, and can do it with ie(s)
To do it I park my task bar on the right or left side of the screen (a side
bar),
pull it out to about 1/3 screen width and make it auto-hide,
I then use the shift click technique to stack up multiple browsers (20-30-40
at a time),
then 'do the bump' with my mouse to pick out the browser window I want (or
alt-tab to get to it).
It is much easier to read the taskbar program icon too, as the taskbar is
much wider...

Works a treat and makes better use of any connection
(just look at your task manager network tab for proof)

I find it excellent to do research in this way, as I can follow Google
threads without getting lost in link space.
