Yep... 4.07 was actually a fair bit closer to 4.5 than to 4.05 (if you follow
me there, gack)... I have 4.07 and 4.5 here, plus 3.01 and 2.0, and they
all co-exist well enough. Though I seldom have all four going at once; up
to three sometimes, though.
In fact I even have, though not installed at the moment, NS version 0.97
beta, released in November of '94... fits comfortably on a single 3.5 floppy,
remarkably. Mind you, it does lack support for a few little things such as,
oh, tables, frames, Java, Javascript, etc etc :)
One small problem I've encountered with NS 4.5 is that some browser-
detection Javascript routines don't take that version number into account,
and thus don't load the scripts in question; that is, the routines fail to see
the browser as "NS4.x or compatible". I think this problem arises when
the detection code is sniffing for 'navigator.userAgentMozilla/4.0x' or
'navigator.appVersion4.0x' -- the new version, of course, identifies itself
as 'navigator.userAgentMozilla/4.5' and 'navigator.appVersion4.5'
