To edit your bookmarks, open your window tab (so that it shows all of your bookmarks and bookmark folders), select the one you want to edit, and click on the little blue pencil above the list. The other bottons should be self-explanatory

I didn't find the "little blue pencil above the list" until I selected <manage bookmarks> and then <show bookmarks in sidebar>. The edit and delete icons are at the top ot the sidebar.

I agree, but I don't know how that could be fixed with AltiVec. I think it's something to do with Quartz. What I wish is that Quartz Extreme supported more graphic features, like scrolling and font antialiasing and intra-window animations. That would really take a load off the CPU and finally make page scrolling silky-smooth like a Windows box instead of the chop-chop-chop it's like now. (On a 550MHz TiBook)

altivec.....

altivec enhanced browser would support all those things and do it fast! thats the prob..but i'm sure a little QE optimizing could also help...thank god for the Gecko standards though.

Phoenix on PC

well, I wish I had a dual g4 or something
worthy of this browser, but 'unfortunately'
I have a 2.4 GHz p4 . I didn't like
Phoenix that much on my PC, It was just
slightly faster then IE but I'm not to wild
about how it renders pages. But it's OK.
