Not in the latest release of Mozilla you can't - no eye. Can't see it in
Opera 6.0 either.

That struck me as extremely patronising - but there's a smiley on the
end, so that's ok.

How about - 'and a very basic one who for those who want to be able to
navigate/find information easily and quickly and are pig sick of seeing
the same slow fades over and over again and want to make the most of
their modern fast connections rather than visiting a slow cumbersome
site that looks like a nostalgic retro trip for lovers of the 28.8k
modem experience.'

Oops, nearly forgot - ;o)
