Its not painful at all, its faster than the A21P im using right now with
Slackware 10.2 and Firefox.
Surprisingly some of the current sites render very well with Netscape 3,
if you disable java script.

Yes that old s/ware was painfully slow when on a 1440 dialup!!
BUT as I said im using it on adsl!! albeit only 1meg a sec download speed.
For our original poster the 390 has a model no on the back starting with
2626.
 Get the seller to look it up and let us know how you get on.
