In Norse mythology, Sleipnir (Old Norse "slippy" or "the slipper") is an eight-legged horse. Sleipnir is attested in the Poetic Edda, compiled in the 13th century from earlier traditional sources, and the Prose Edda, written in the 13th century by Snorri Sturluson. In both sources, Sleipnir is Odin's steed, is the child of Loki and Svaðilfari, is described as the best of all horses, and is sometimes ridden to the location of Hel. The Prose Edda contains extended information regarding the circumstances of Sleipnir's birth, and details that he is gray in color.

Additionally, Sleipnir is mentioned in a riddle found in the 13th century legendary saga Hervarar saga ok Heiðreks, in the 13th century legendary saga Völsunga saga as the ancestor of the horse Grani, and book I of Gesta Danorum, written in the 12th century by Saxo Grammaticus, contains an episode considered by many scholars to involve Sleipnir. Sleipnir is generally accepted as depicted on two 8th century Gotlandic image stones; the Tjängvide image stone and the Ardre VIII image stone.

Scholarly theories have been proposed regarding Sleipnir's potential connection to shamanic practices among the Norse pagans. In modern times, Sleipnir appears in Icelandic folklore as the creator of Ásbyrgi, in works of art, literature, in the names of ships, and as the name of a web browser.

Approximately, how fast can Sleipnir run?
Q. I was just wondering if those extra four legs of theirs can help them run faster or just run the same speed as a normal horse. Thanks for your attention! I hope to receive good answers! P.S. This is the Sleipnir horse from Norse mythology!

I have Internet Explorer 7, Opera 9, and Google Chrome. I want another browser. Which one would you recommend?
Q. I have Internet Explorer 7, Opera 9, and Google Chrome. I want another browser. Which one would you recommend? Which one should I uninstall. Or should I even uninstall one? I've tried Firefox, Sleipnir, Safari, and Lunascape. Should I install one those? Which one? Or is there another browser you recommend? I am looking for speed. I don't care about skins, customizability, all I want is speed. If there are skins, etc. I wouldn't mind, though.

A. List from best to worst(fastest speed): 1.Google Chrome 2.Firefox 3.Opera 4.IE Now for security: 1.Firefox 2.Google Chrome 3.Opera 4.IE So...your best bet is either Firefox or Google Chrome :) PS. Don't have all of those browsers downloaded to your computer at once, it slows your computer down.
