Firefox-Based Netscape 8 Beta Goes Live
pigmelon writes "According to BetaNews, 'America Online's Netscape team has opened its doors to the public, releasing the first beta of the revived Netscape Web browser. (screenshot) Based upon Firefox, Netscape version 8 focuses on security and user privacy, and supports rendering with both Mozilla's Gecko and Microsoft's Internet Explorer browser engines.' Before downloading the beta, remember that it uses Firefox 1.0, which contains some vulnerabilities."
Does it fix the shyte rendering of slasdot?
Jesus, that screenshot is like the browser version of my grandfather's "retirement shirts". Except, only if he lived inside Spencer's Gifts, and was a science fiction drama from 1963, and had ADD. And rabies.
Ok, so who's the brainiac that figured it would be a good idea to take a screenshot with a "Microsoft is making progress" headline/news item?
Don't think that a small group of dedicated individuals can't change the world. It's the only thing that ever has.

Wow the dot-com bubble is back from the dead!
Your hair look like poop, Bob! - Wanker.
No, no, no, you got it all wrong. Not all Windows users are going to accept that crappy interface.
That's what AOL-brained people will like. They're willing to take crappy software from anyone, as long as it comes with flashy buttons and a "Me Too!" auto-posting button, too.
There are no trails. There are no trees out here.
I'm pretty sure people were making more than 75 cents per hour during the dot-com bubble. Unless you meant the 17th century tulip bubble.
Use the operating system's default widget set? Pffft. That is SOOO 1993.
Can you imagine how boring it'd be if you already knew where to find, say, the 'minimize' button on EVERY application? Where's the fun in that?
