| I must ask - how would you like a browser to center content vertically
| on a continuous media type ?
<html>
<style type="text/css">
#a { width: 500px; height: 500px; border: 1px solid lime }
/* now I want to center DIV 'b' both horizontally and vertically, but can
do only horizontal centering */
#b { font-size: 14pt; fornt-weight: bold; color: navy;
margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;
width: 150px; height: 80px; border: 4px solid navy }
</style>
<body>
<div id="a">
<div id="b">center me</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
I apologize in advance that I do not make this example accessible to blind
people - to my best knowledge, problem is really specific to Visual media.

| 4200rpm, I believe. IBM ThinkPad 570.
Compaq Presario 1800. and, as I said, 3500 rpm.
BTW: I forgot to ask. What version of Linux you are running?
Have you compiled Mozilla with -O3 and what exact parameters you have in
'hdparm' settings?
you can check wether hdparm is installed using
# locate hdparm
note: I needed Root (superuser) access to get it, as it's located here at:
/sbin/hdparm
you can check speed of your disk using following command:
[root@localhost root]# hdparm -tT /dev/hda
/dev/hda:
Timing buffer-cache reads: 128 MB in 0.99 seconds =129.29 MB/sec
Timing buffered disk reads: 64 MB in 8.44 seconds = 7.58 MB/sec
