I think choosing Netscape over Internet Explorer is like choosing the lesser of two evils. Netscape has been crashing bad lately, no wonder they sold out. - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e Check out the SuSE-FAQ at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A">http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A</A>> and the archiv at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A">http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A</A>>

For sure. Netscrape though has always crashed bad. Its never been solid, solid like a rock :). I think that as I look at netscrape 4.5 on suse 6 that it still has bugs and it crashes with bus errors on <A HREF="mailto:s">mailto:s</A>. ImO, its junk. But then again, so is Internet Exploder. Bring on Opera... Please. Next step for me is back to 3.04 which has some minor problems, but it does not stop working at odd times or just chew up 128mb of memory. Have to admit to using lynx most of the time anyhow. I dont remember the last time it crashed and for file downloads it screams the ether. -- Michael Perry mperry@basin.com ------------------- - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e Check out the SuSE-FAQ at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A">http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A</A>> and the archiv at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A">http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A</A>>
Last I heard , they were working on opera for Linux. They were have problems with it I unserdstand. Perhaps We can ALL let them know that we realy want it for linux . Even better , If we could get some programer to lend some sort of hand. I assume that linux is new to them , and that some help may smoth the path for them. Whoo know , maybe they will jump on the open source bandwagon ? Bring on Opera...
