Theres an auto fill button, blogger, and direct access to further inof on the site visiting.

It's also easier to change you configeration as it doesn't divert to a html page when you choose options.

Oh and theres a built in pop up blocker.

Oh and a button to let you navagatie direct to their mac/linux pages.

2 + 2 is possibly 4, but don't bank on it as did you know that 2 = 1. Not convinced? Here's the proof.

Let a = b

a^2 = ab

a^2 + a^2 = a^2 + ab

2a^2 = a^2 + ab

2a^2 - 2ab = a^2 + ab - 2ab

2(a^2 - ab) = 1(a^2 - ab)

Cancelling (a^2 - ab) from both sides gives 2 = 1

mmmm, thats confusing but in this last step:

2(a^2 - ab) = 1(a^2 - ab)

You say that a and b are the same, and so the bits in the brakets will always equal 0, so you are just saying 0=0? :D

Yep. And when you cancel out you are dividing zero by zero, which is indeterminate.
