It is? Then why is it that, when I have a dozen windows open to
graphics-heavy sites, closing one window will occasionally shut
netscape down entirely? Usually with a simple "bus error" as the
entire explanation, although yesterday it managed to hose X so badly
that I had to reboot to recover (first time I've seen that happen
without DRI being involved).
So, no, I wouldn't call Netscape 4.77 "rock solid".
