CubeFans Lack of Cubes?

[Ashmnafa]

I used the search function and didn't find anything like this.

Is it just me, or does Cubefans.com have less cubes that Cube4you.com?

I use Firefox, so I use Cubefans.

Does anyone else have this problem?

Cubeforyou has everything. cubefans sucks.

Use IE just for that, problem solved.

It's annoying that cubefans hardly has much cos I'm a mac user I have to run a virtual machine in order to get IE so I can order from c4y lol...

 

[mcciff2112]

I also use firefox. But seriously, use IE to order cubes, because cube4you is much better. It's the only time I ever use IE.

 

[Ashmnafa]

IE is not an option, I am using a MacBook.

 

[Jake Gouldon]

Look at one of the posts above and research what a "virtual machine" is, how to get it, use it, etc.
and DO IT!

Or have someone with IE order it for you or something.

 

[Ashmnafa]

Yeah, I know what a virtual machine is, but I don't have the Windows CD.
I didn't think of that second one.

You could probably just go to a library, right?

 

[Ashmnafa]

Hmm...thats another good idea.

Vote with your dollars. Send them an email and let them know they're losing your business because their site doesn't work in standards compliant browsers.

hmm.. I may do this as well, maybe we can get C4Y to support alternate browsers if we have enough people do this..

I like the fact shipping rates are less. But, I know, their inventory is lacking a lot of the stuff that I want. I have IE. But I still like Cubefans. Maybe because Cubefans has about 100 Gigaminx's (with stickers!) left, and Cubeforyou has none?

And doesn't the new C4Y site also support Firefox?

I have a firefox add-on that allows me to switch rendering engines at will. It's called IETab, pretty nifty if you ask me.

I only use IE. It came with my computer in 2005 which by by some kind of luck had Windows XP pre installed on it and by that had IE pre-installed too.

Most of the world uses IE and Windows XP. And almost all good online sites will work best on IE too.

Most of the world has non-diy cubes. Does it make them the best option?

Oh, and IE being the best/good browser.... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...

IE has pretty much the slowest script load time, lowest benchmark results, very poor ACID3 score (20/100; for comparison - Firefox 93; Opera 100; Safari 100; Konqueror 100). Also, IE doesn't support many web technologies.

WTF2L!!!
Omg tell me you are kidding me?
You know the results of some researches for that?
Most late-grownups use IE (45-...) because they don't know how to use computer so much and they keep nagging about how bad the computer is.. even though they don't like the browser.
Most of sub-40 age use FF because.. THEY KNOW HOW TO USE COMPUTER!

For the windows XP I'm fully agreed.. I hate vista.. it's so slow and creepy. XP is easy to handle and it's FAST!

Also FF is fast.. and you can make it even faster.. although the "making faster" disappears in time..

Sorry for off topic but IE sucks... totally. even my sister uses FF now

 

[AvGalen]

I would like to see a source (other than your big thumb) for that claim Novriil

I know how to use a computer and I use IE because it is "good enough" and actually works for everything. I also use Chrome because it is "way better" but only on some sites where it works well.

Firefox is only good because of the plug-ins, Safari on Mac and Opera for developers. There, I can make ridicoulous (but true) claims as well

I am downloading this right now. I will get back with the results.

EDIT: I have tested it and it works.

Problem solved.
