[dba-Tech] A new super browser

I would be certainly interested in a copy.  All my work at home is on Linux Mint.  (Windows AND Mac have driven me there!)

Mmmm mint, my favorite flavor.

Well, that is probably true but I am talking to a tech savvy audience here and most Linux distro ISOs are around 2-3 GB or less. A full boot version of a downloaded ISO of the latest Ubuntu 15.10, on a USB stick is only 2.1 GB.

Of course if your only have access is via a Starbuck's open hotspot or a 56K modem then well... ;-)  

If anyone would like to run up their own copies, I would be pleased to help.
 
Jim

But of course that is if you know what you are doing AND can get the files downloaded in less than 10 minutes which most people can't.
