No. I looked briefly at NS6. Haven't seen past that yet. > They're up to 6.2 and it's based on Mozilla...

The only real advantage NS <= 4.x has is running on older (Pentium & PPro) hardware. NS6 has all of Mozilla's bloat and then some. Galeon's stripped of some of this, though it still likes a fast box. Dillo's my high-speed graphical browser of choice. Hell, it starts up faster than w3m in an xterm. And it's stable. Peace. -- Karsten M.
