I can confirm that; I've got the same set-up. Classic II, 10MB, 200MB 
internal HD, Apple external 2X CDROM, and a Dayna Ether/SC SCSI Ethernet 
adaptor linking into my home network and its 576Kb/s ADSL connection.

Netscape 2 is horribly slow, and most sites won't work with it these days.

Netscape 3 just about fits in RAM, but it is unusable. Slashdot.org takes 
25min+ to render. 8�)

But using Netscape 2 I downloaded iCab 2.9 (from www.icab.de) and it's 
noticeably faster. It's merely unusably slow, as opposed to "is this 
working? Has it crashed?" So a clear improvement there.

Incidentally, though, I've noticed no problems with having the CD 
connected as well.
