Hello All,

Hope you do not mind me changing the subject on this discussion.

Francisco mentions below that he uses Firefox on Linux.  Over the weekend, I
tried to book online for Dublin Airport car park using Linux and FF.
 However, the site informed me that they do not currently support this phone
browser and to try a regular PC.

Well I guess I can understand what caused that wrong message, but I was
disappointed that I had to go upstairs to my windows machine.

To gently tease the kids, I also took a printscreen of their old Windows
desktop and set it as the desktop on the  linux installation.  Their heads
were messed up because they could see the Windows icons, but still they were
on linux :)
