  AMEN! I dunno about the Windows version, but NS 6 for Linux is a
buggy farce of a resource hog. Netscape was one of the front runners in
developing a Linux port of their mainstream application, and the Linux
port was always at least as stable as the Windows one. If that's still
true, Netscape is headed for the dumper. The quality & stability of the
Netscape suite has declined almost since the day AOL bought 'em. "More
features! Screw debugging!"
  I run Mozilla in Linux, and Opera (yes, I even paid for it) in
Windows. The two MacOS machines run NS 3....
