i have found its certainly more of a pig, and its interface is very
sluggish, it does tend to be less stable too, but only for certain
sites.  i think for most people sticking with netscape 4.75 is
probably the best thing for now.

having said that, netscape 6 is still far worse then mozilla, don't be
fooled by AOL/Netscape calling it `final gold release'.
