    And the Modern theme is very nice and durable, which makes IE look very tired. Great work by all involved!

    Just wait until you see IE 6 in XP - it is so much nicer than the "Modern" theme. With all the Luna goodness (minus the messed-up scrollbars - haven't tried RC1, might be fixed), it's really quite a pretty browser.

    MUCH nicer looking than Mozilla, more colorful, better CSS support (well - as far as I can tell, I haven't done a detailed analysis, but so far I haven't run into too many bugs) - P3P support, image blocking support - it's really nice.

    NS6 doesn't stand a chance against IE6.

    Additionally, if you only browse sites that comply to HTML 1.0 standards, never click on any links, and stand on one leg, I have found that Netscape 4.7 can run for a whole 10 minutes without using 99% of my CPU. My record is 11 minutes, 6seconds before it has crashed. Go Netscape 4!

  4. More stable than Netscape 4.78? by b1t+r0t · · Score: 5, Funny
    Talkback data shows that recent 0.9.2 branch builds are more stable than Netscape 4.78

    That isn't saying much. It is my experience that nitroglycerin is more stable than any version of Netscape 4.xx.

    There are plenty of "bugs" that aren't, including feature-requests, user error, bad HTML/websites (e.g. the TLS mess), et cetera.

    Microsoft refers to bugs as "features".
    The Mozilla project refers to features as "bugs".
