Parent article: A grumpy user's browser review

My computers' deskops are GNOME, I don't use "the whole KDE infrastructure", nor do I have it installed. However, I have happily used Konqueror on my system, and found it to be a useful and capable browser. All it demands is some libraries, the same thing that most browsers demand.

In particular, Galeon, which was reviewed, is just as demanding of "the whole GNOME infrastructure", in that it requires some core GNOME libraries.

I don't use Konqueror as my primary browser, but the "infrastructure" thing sounds like a lame and FUDdy excuse not to include it in a review. There's enough FUD in the world, there's no need for us to go flinging it ourselves.
