On 15 Aug 2002, it is alleged that  sauntered in to 
netscape.public.mozilla.mail-news and loudly proclaimed:

No, NC 4.x is an undead c�lacanth that desperately needs a stake driven 
thro' its scale-plated body:  It's hopeless in its handling of CSS and its 
mail client is painfully limited.

BTW, what does anything about NC 4.x have to do on a Mozilla developer NG?  
NS 7.0 PR-1 at least shares the same code-base.  And 'awful' is a 
horrifically vague description.  Loads slowly on my box, too, but I'm using 
a P-200 MMX, which is a bit under spec.

'Course, you could always try going to the source and download Mozilla 
rather than clinging to a relic that is rapidly going the way of the 
dinosaur.  Try Beonex (http://beonex.com/); it's a bit more geared to end-
users.
