NS6 lasted a little longer than it took to download on the one mac it was tried on. A lemon of a browser. I cant think of a reason why anyone would keep it. AFAIK NS6 and 7 would try to share the same preferences if both were installed which probably would cause problems. NS4.? and NS7 do not share their user prefs NS7 will give the option to copy and convert NS4.5 (i think) and up user preferences and store them in Docs/Mozilla. I believe it was the same with NS6 Regardless of what NS or who ever has posted NS4 and 7 run fine on the same machine, well as well as can be expected.
