I suspect that there are many more users operating troublefree than crashing. But,
why would they complain? The only problem I've ever had with Netscape is when I
tested an unusual (for me) bookmark edit feature that another user was experiencing
problems with. That did indeed cause a crash of Netscape. Other than that, it's been
rock solid.

Maybe it does depend on the computer resources available. I'm running basically the
same setup as you - a K6-300, 64M ram, Matrox Mystique and fvwm95.
