Oddly enough, I think the theory (if I dare call it that) that I had read stated something like someone had thought it was easier or faster for the server if the full address was spelled out for it. The server wouldn't have to stop, scratch its head, and figure out where it needed to go to get the page. But that browser thingy makes sense to me to.
That's it. I'm confused.
