Hi everyone.

This is, I believe, my first post here.

I've had terrible lag problems with my little Asus Netbook ( 1000AH) and 
Firefox. We're talking pages half loading and then stalling for > 30 
secs and the cursor being temporarily possessed by the Assyrian demon 
Uh-Oh-Molasses.

After seeing this thread today, I started digging and found a very nice 
guide on eeebuntu.org's wiki for "Faster Firefox." It's here: 
http://eeebuntu.org/wiki/index.php/Fasterfox

Keep in mind that this is specifically for eeebuntu, but it might be a 
starting point. It definitely worked for me ( I ditched Xandros and 
installed eeebuntu a while back). I'm not running 3.6, but rather 3.0.5 
( something).

Hopefully, I'll get a chance to meet some of you at a meeting soon. I've 
been a little nervous about the night drive from Fort Wayne to Winona 
Lake, but since the days are getting longer...

Garry
