I too have both installed, but if I start mozilla first and then
netscape (without --no-remote), then the netscape wrapper script talks
to mozilla and it opens a new mozilla window. With the --no-remote
option to the netscape wrapper script the test for an already running
netscape/mozilla is skipped and you get a new instance of netscape
started.
There is no problem in having both installed, and you can run both at
the same time too, but they can interfere with each other.
