Netscape does fonts badly they are small even on 800x600. I have used the 
following in Mandrake 7.0 & Mandrake 7.2.
The main problem is that Netscape wants to use 75dpi fonts which is typically 
too small. You can fix this by specifying the appropriate X resources in your 
.Xdefaults file:

Netscape*documentFonts.sizeIncrement: 20
Netscape*documentFonts.xResolution*iso-8859-1: 100
Netscape*documentFonts.yResolution*iso-8859-1: 100

The number 100 can be chosen arbitrarily. For example, if you like your fonts 
really large than you could use 150 instead.

After changing .xdefaults logout and reboot your machine.
