Well, Netscape has some. They are a little biased, but they give the idea.
And http://www.richinstyle.com has a CSS comparison - we come out best,
and Hixie has pointed out to the owner that half the "bugs" he has marked
down for us are either fixed, or not bugs at all.

Many people are using Mozilla, superior standards support and all, on a
daily basis, despite the fact that it's not finished yet.

No-one's claiming that you should be using trunk Mozilla, in its current
state, as your primary email app. And although we have a few bookmarks
dataloss bugs (unless Fabian fixed them last night, or BenG fixes them in
his checkin next week), I don't know of any mail message ones.
