Off-topic for a moment, can Opera for Mac do panels? I know it can't do full-screen...

Wouldn't have an idea.
Just open the hotlist and right-click on the top row of panel registers (Bookmarks // Email // Contacts). If the appearing menue shows "Add panel..." you can.
Or taake the question to the Opera Users' Group ... conveniently located at A665381

Now, now. We must be tolerant of minorities. Especially *very small* minorities, like Alabaster fans.

Nothing ATM and h2g2 is as fast as usual (topping 12 kB/s my end on an ADSL line).
Last night we had about an hour of trouble woth Goo/Alabaster and lost Uspaces and stuff.
Italics seem to have to clue as to what caused it...

Or if they are using Windows 2000, the latest service pack is causing problems and we advise our clients to reinstall the previous one.
Whenever I use my user space I head for the wine

=================
20 February 2002: Server Problems
We're really sorry about the current unreliability of h2g2. We're having some major problems with our servers - they're crashing about once a day - but we haven't yet identified what the exact cause is. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a consistent pattern to the problem, so it's very difficult to see what is causing the crashes.
As soon as we can pinpoint a cause we can prevent it from happening again, but until then there's nothing we can do except keep hunting for the cause.
We apologise profusely for this performance problem, and hope you can bear with us while we work into the night on finding a fix.
