I would have to agree that Netscape is a rather bulky, lose-ended browser program. Not to give too many props to big computer corporations that don't need any (ahem...M$) but even IE is much faster, and more friendly.
Even back in the day when Netscape was in its infant stages, IE would load quicker and seem more nimble under the flying fingers of the most demanding surfer. After all, who wants to wait while numerous plugins and inits take so long to load.
Competition to mainstay programs is what keeps our community moving ahead, but I must say that Netscape maybe should think about streamlining their code....after all it is for the masses.
