[dba-Tech] Opera anyone?

Hi Hans:

So did Apple make the Webkit core that current browsers are using?

Just want to point out that Google Chrome's core is WebKit - Apples open source browser core (as shared by Safari). Apple doesn't always open source things, but, when they do, I think they deserve some attribution rather than Google - a beneficiary.

If anyone here has used and/or has a high definition screen you will most likely notice how shabby your browser appears on the screen. Various hacks tend to make the browser just look worse.
