I almost don't know what to do with myself, not having to reach for the shift key each time I refresh in firefox!

I've also noticed that replies post much, much faster.

At home I'm using the current version of AOL software (I'll verify which one when I get home); no problems so far.

Windows XP... umm... whatever updates are put on here automatically...

I'm using the AOL browser. And I'm not having any issues. And it seems to post much faster than the old board. So far, I'm liking this board just fine.

That Linux only has its old Mozilla browser. It's Vine Linux, which is a free Japanese spinoff of Red Hat. (As you can see, I don't update my browsers very often. My general feeling about updating anything is: not until I really have to. You see, I am pretty conservative after all!)

Mac OS X 10.4.8
Firefox 1.5.0.9
Safari 2.0.4

No problems noticed that cannot be chalked up to user confusion.
