That is an important qualifier, because Mozilla provides nowhere near the
functionality of NC4.77, and not only due to its insane memory usage.

BAHAHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAAA!!! I was waiting for that one! Honest to
God I should have been a psychiatrist, because I can literally read you guys
like a book!

No, they're not. Notepad is an application for editing text. Wordpad is an
app for editing RTF. Word is an advanced word processor. Not much
similarity between any of these three.
On the other metaphor-busting hand, Mozilla is a web browser and an email/news
reader (well, maybe someday it will be). NC4.77 is a web browser and
email/newsreader. IE+OE is a web browser and email/newsreader. Three of a
kind, only one of these is sucking a lot of wind while pigging out on RAM.

Both Wordpad and Word actually *work* Gerv. Mozilla doesn't, and it's already
more bloated than both NC4.77 and IE. How much more MB will be required
before 1.0?
You're starting to sound like the Javapologists with their embarrasingly
strident "wait 'til next year!"s, which were an annual event for about, what,
five years now? Next you'll be telling me how XUL and the "Mozilla Platform"
is going to put MS out of business and... oh, sorry.
