Here's the fundamental issue that the geek community really needs to
understand. To the person using this, (and Mozilla is being pushed so hard
by Netscape, and a lot of media outlets that a lot of folks are using it who
shouldn't), they are the same thing with a different paint job.
They're web browsers with email and IM stuff, and I can make it look
different.
That's the mindset of the general public folks.
