Yeah, lets hope that mozilla will be optimized. It's dog slow here. Galeon is 
better.. (and who knows - maybe they'll fix the bloody bug which doesn't 
recognized plugins in ~/.mozilla/plugins well)..

Are you seriously comparing Nautilus to Konqueror?? Nautilus (as much as I 
know it) doesn't have even 1/8th numbers of "plugins" (KIOSlaves in 
konqueror) - things like smb, sftp, lan browsing (without mounting), mac 
share browsing, zip/arj/tar/gz file browsing, pop3, man pages browsing, ldap, 
nfs, nntp.. should I continue???

Lets face it - Nautilus was a nice idea for it's time - to make a file 
manager with package installer, which came from a company with 0 knowledge of 
business know-how, and one of the most buggiest application I ever seen. 

Of course - if someone could make Nautilus snappier, faster and umm.. lighter 
- it will be a good thing(tm)..

Thanks,
Hetz
