Arora no longer default

[Zerix01]

Why was Arora changed from the default browser to Konq on the netbook edition? I have been using it for weeks and love it. Every time there is a new KDE release I try out Konqueror again but there is always something wrong with it that makes me switch back to firefox. Arora has been the first QT based browser that I can use from day to day. The only exception is when using hulu.com I still need firefox, even Konq does not load their videos.

I guess the answer lies somewhere here:

I like aurora and am sure that it will have a great future, don't like konqui much.
For my 2cents I am sticking with FF.
The wonders of choice. Enjoy

Just wonder if you have given a try to a new Opera 10? It's easy to download from www.opera.com and install by just doubleclick on the deb file. IMHO it is very nice in Kubuntu, with a lot of features, for example spell checking, mht export and rss and it looks like it can play hulu.com videos too, but unfortunately I can't prove it.

It also gets 100% in the Acid 3 test.
