RE: the quest for a *stable* browser
I had read a review in news.com recently that opera is the most stable
and fastest (in terms of page display) on linux. Try it out (free
version comes with a small advt banner logo).

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".
