  Well, I have windows 10 and Waterfox bombed. I am left with Edge and Vivaldi, but 2 options are better than none LOL

  Always willing to try new options or I wouldn't have stumbled upon Vivaldi, which works with my computer at the moment.

  I tried Vivaldi this morning and it only took a single  9 hole round to realize how poorly it runs on my system. I had many stutters with it that I don't get with any other browser and a couple of huge spikes. Wont be using it again.

  Didn't know it was so system sensitive, guess the only way to find out is to try things, but it is interesting to note that results an be dramatically different.Trial and error seem to be the only way to see which browsers work. The good news is that browsers can be deleted. I've done it at least a dozen times.

  Edge and Vivaldi both work on my computer, but Max Cloud had the yips like every other browser I've tried. Only cure for browsers seems to be process of elimination.

  I tried Maxthon yesterday. It seemed nice and smooth until I clicked the mouse the second time on the shot....it took about a full second to respond each time. Any suggestions?

  Thanks for the tip:

  Just Downloaded Slimjet after reading the post. It is fast on my computer and if it lives up to it's promises, then it's even better. I like to keep an extra browser or two in the bullpen in case the starting pitcher blows up.

  Speaking of Browsers. If you have tried all the brand names, the dragons, foxes, clouds and jets and you are still getting a stuttering meter, then here is a short list of off Broadway browsers that perhaps are less known but are working fine with no skips and yips on my windows 10 system.

  I was forced to shop for browsers again after even Slimjet Chrome, Maxthon. Torch, Edge and Opera got a case of the jitters. Here's the list of little known browsers that are all working well with my computer. You may also, depending on your system, need to close all other windows and/or set flash quality to High or Medium instead of Best. 

  I am at champion level with a 53.19 average; not great, but not too terrible when you factor in the senior discount. LOL

  The List: Vivaldi, Avant, Yandex, & SRWware Iron

  I keep all of these on my task bar as insurance in case one of them goes bad like cottage cheese left in the back of the fridge for a year.

  Good Luck

  A lot of what makes your meter run smoothly is how much memory your computer has. With my old PC I had only 2 gigs and had to use game booster or G Boost to have a smooth meter. With my the PC I'm using now I have 4 gig and have a smooth meter with almost all browsers. The more memory the better WGT will run.

   Only Vivaldi and Pale Moon run poorly on this PC. Those 2 browsers look like they are dancing the jitterbug.
