Great news - I sure hope Opera make some money out of their browser. years ago, it was well worth paying the license fee considering that IE4 and Netscape 4 were the competition. Now that Mozilla, Konqueror et al have gotten so good, I wonder if it's so compelling anymore.

Hmmm - didn't work with me though. Maybe I need to check again. I thought AMD has put in some cunning tirck to stop such overcloking.
The mail client looks and feels the same so you'll find the conversion easy to make although you'll need to change the theme of Mozilla to the "classic" look to match Netscape 4.7.
The mail should import easily - at least it did with me but then I didn't have much to import so you might want to test that. But the thing is, Mozilla and Netscape 4.x coexist happily so you can have them both running if you like.
Note that Mozilla seemes to need more resources to run than Netscape 4.7 (it does for me)so if your Win 98 machine is a bit slow, you might need to upgrade. But as I said, you can have both running side by side on the same machine anyway.
