Netscape is about 12 million lines of code, it is a gorilla.
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.
