There is no known platform on which it runs without dying on you..I would say on my work Solaris system, which involves practically constant use of Netscape googling and the repulsive Netscape mail it dies 1-2 a day. It just disappears. I have an alias set for "rm ~/.netscape/lock". But do you mean netscape 4.7x ? Or Mozilla, or netscape-mozilla, or Linux-netscape-mozilla, or netscape-6-mozilla, or stawberry ice-cream ? Opera, buggy as it is, beats the pants off any other browser I have used. When it gets stabilised I will be very happy. It tends to take up too much real-estate is my only complaint, but at least I can make it readable, which can be quite a challenge in netscape. Oh there is one thing worse than netscape, and that is konqueror. -- Regards Cliff Sarginson -- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
