    Guys guys, you forget one thing. Each browser has a "wait time" in which it will halt displaying the received information.

    Mozilla Firefox gets information as fast as any other browser out there, I mean, think about it. The browser is using your connection, this means all browsers will get the information at the same time. A few browers wait a moment or two before displaying so that they can display more at once, this way the user gets more of the page at once. No, I'm not talking about processing time either, as those differences are counted in millaseconds. I'm talking about the preference ability to say "hold information until the page is loaded to a certain %, or for a certain amount of seconds, so the browser can display more information at once"

    That is merely personal preference, but in each browser that is changable. So the test doesn't prove anything execpt what setting you have for "how long/much information to wait for before displaying"

    IE: Takes no time to cache before displaying
    Opera: Takes a mere moment to collect information
    Mozilla(fox): Takes a few moments, usually displaying the entire page at once.
    etc.. etc..

    As I said, this is not a test you can place for how good a browser is, as it is a configurable setting and not the true browser speed. On a side note, I hate Opera. Why? I refuse to pay for a browser, or have Ads in a free version. If I wanted that, I would be using AOL.
