Hi Raymond!
No, I don't see neither Netscape6 nor Mozilla as my browser of choice.
Mozilla (Netscape6) is *too* bloated, *too* buggy for everyday use.
Besides, it crashes too often.
What is good in Mozilla is it rendering engine. may be, you can try Galeon
browser (Gecko port to Gnome interface), look at http://galeon.sourceforge.net
For dayly work, I use Konqueror browser from KDE 2.1 (now Beta2).
It is much more stable then Mozill aor MS IE.
Besides, you can easily open 15 windows of Konqueror, without system hangs.
(my Windows 98 with 128MB of RAM hangs on 8 windows of MS IE opened; free
system resources can be as low as 1% !)
Look for more info at http://www.kde.org.
Or, on my KDE site (see links below).
For rendering results, you can check out my HTMLtests site:

(there are screenshots for MS IE, Konqueror, Mozilla on Linux, NS6 on
Windows, and even Opera 4.02)
