Netscape 7.1 Released
Phil writes "Netscape has just released the eagerly-awaited Netscape 7.1 (previously known by its codename, 'Buffy') for Windows, Mac OS and Linux. The new version is based on Mozilla 1.4, which is due out later today. Netscape 7.1 features many improvements over 7.02 including even better CSS support, spam filters, find-as-you-type, automatic image resizing, more customization via about:config, Web development tools, Palm synchronization and more. Plus, for the first time, ChatZilla (Mozilla's IRC client) is included in the full install. More information can be found at Netscape Browser Central and in this MozillaZine article. The release is available from Netscape's download page, via FTP or on CD."
Those Damn Motha-F**kers.
I'm seriously pissed. They should have said:
Do you want to install our advertisement displaying system that ignores your user input, home page selection, and other settings?
AOL: I hate you.
I will never use your software, unless it happens to be the only broadband in the whole entire world.
Netscape Staff: You suck - if you even exist anymore - seems like 90% of your work is adding on crapware installers for AOL rather than doing good work - you should go work for doubleclick or other add F**ks.
Mozilla peeps: thanks for your awesome browser - still loads faster on my slow work machine than Netscrape.
There. Done.
"even better CSS support"
i.e. from suck to blow.
i'm amazed that i survived - an airbag saved my life.
