)It's just a programmer joke. I know firefox does it, didn't know the maemo browser does it too.
The worst you can do in that place is screw up your browser, requiring a reset to default
It will not void the warranty on your device. Nothing software-related will.
The question is legitimate for a beginner though

that's just a message in firefox, and since the n900 browser is essentially firefox with a redesigned interface (or at least borrows heavily from firefox), it's still displaying that try it in firefox in linux or in windows and you're going to get the same message.

OK. I use Firefox on Linux and my Mac, and have tinkered in about:config but never noticed (or remember seeing) the warning. I guess the new N900 made me more observant of everything. Thanks to all.
