Interesting article quote Netscape's browser used to be light and zippy, but now it's heavy and sluggish. The current version on my computer, Netscape 6.2e (an enterprise version not markedly different than the consumer one), takes up five times as much memory as Internet Explorer does. Hell, it even takes up more memory than my operating system. Needless to say, it also crashes frequently. Netscape is so bad that I would no longer use it, except that as an AOL employee, I'm forced to. Time Inc. (the AOL subsidiary I work for) recently switched its corporate e-mail to Netscape Mail, which can be used only with the Netscape browser. /quote Actually you can retreive Netscape mail from IE using the browser interface. I am sure the Netscape Champions are going to flood the reply , just as they have done in the past. -- Kyle
