 !- Mirrors -
people have begun mirroring our info, and sometimes it is easier to browse or view them because of the text-only, user-alterable format we stick to, so, you might have a look... but, remember, the most up-to-date version will just about always be found here at the group... if you mirror any FAQs and/or guides from here, even if you choose to alter them (or if you know of someone who does), please add a link in this folder to make them easily available for everyone...

Technical Stuff
there are great sites for Dreamcast-Tech, so, we don't have to be one... we are free to handle the user end of things, since no other site does... but, since some of the more technical aspects is handy to some of the people here, and could promote more knowledge, herein lies links to some technical faqs...

!- Dreamcast Browser Feature Comparison Chart -
what does DreamKey/DreamPassport have that Planetweb doesn't? what does Planetweb have that the others don't? does DreamKey have IRC? can Planetweb DreamCall call a DreamPassport? does DreamPassport have SSL? does any other browser besides Planetweb play Mp3's? what other browsers have Java? find the answers to these sorts of questions here... also, remember the database is SEARCHABLE, so, if you are looking for something specific, enter keywords ("Mp3", "Flash", "SSL", etc.) into the top right box to find exactly what you are looking for... this chart is accessible only to members by Yahoo!, and is therefore out of our control to change, but, joining only takes a second and you can even 'unjoin' just as quickly...

!- you CAN surf with ANY in-game DreamKey -
you probably already have a much better browser than PlanetWeb... PSO, PSOv2, JGR, MSR, Daytona USA, SA2, Skies of Arcadia, Sega GT, CT2, and more... they all contain DreamKey... and Chu Chu Rocket has the best version of all...

- DreamPassport 3 vs. DreamPassport Premier -
there is a world of difference, and one cannot clearly be said to be the best browser... it is a matter of taste... here is some of the most important differences you will want to have in mind when considering upgrading.... (again, a reminder... if you have never used DP, you should learn to use DreamKey first... and once you learn DK, if you are only getting ONE DP, it should be DP3...)
