The Da Vinci Code - Page 14

I use 7.2. Well, considering what a sheep I'm supposed to be I guess a little bit of the rebel still exists within.

The reason I was afraid to ask is because we still get hit by people using Netscape 4.x and there is nothing worse than that (from a Web development point of view). Of course the occasional WebTV browser hits are good for some nostalgia.

I still hope for a rare sighting of an early version of Lynx (not that late version sightings are common). Anybody still running a Gopher server?

About my Netscape browser: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20051012 Netscape/8.0.4 (and my ex uses it too, same version. I think I set hubby up with it also, at his studio).

I loved 7.2, but now am addicted to tabs. At work I'm forced to use Exhorror. Well, I figure it keeps the IT guys in work, since practically every other day we have to re-boot for the latest fix installed overnight. I'm not used to not having admin privs, though...and although I've found a few ways around that I still can't DL Netscape, so still miss my Netscape while I'm there.

Generally, at home I rarely have trouble surfing...even filed my taxes online using this browser. At work, IE wigs constantly if I'm listening to netradio...I never adjusted to Firefox, although I've got it for testing pages. I have Opera on my phone. I think that's it!

I've never had any problems at all with Explorer, just grew accustomed to tabs.

And tabs are the method for breaking the Da Vinci Code just to bring this back on topic.

OK, so I finished the book last night and found it really anti-climatic. And where is this fight with an albino that everyone keeps talking about? I feel like I read a totally different book then everyone else.

That said, I did enjoy it, and I will see the movie.

I saw the movie this afternoon. I think it would do fine as a stand-alone movie but it destroyed the book.

Spoiler:

I didn't think Hanks performance was "call-in". I really felt it. Sir Ian was amazing as well. Molina pulled me out of it though, I kept seeing him as DocOc. Paul Bettany is pretty hot and I have to admit I was crushing on Hanks acting all protective of Sophie.

Spoiler: I did not like the scenes at Roslin, I was really hoping that would have followed the book. Unless I missed it, there was no talk of all the scrolls and history in the book. I did like the very end though, following the Rose Line and then going down into the crypt. I didn't think Hanks performance was "call-in". I really felt it. Sir Ian was amazing as well. Molina pulled me out of it though, I kept seeing him as DocOc.
