valen at tuatha.org spoke thusly:
> Internet explorer 5, running under VMware on Linux is more stable and
>faster than Netscape. Sad, but true.

http://www.microsoft.com/unix/ie/default.asp

anyone running sparc linux care to tell if it runs?  annyone care to
explain why something built on solaris/sparc can't be built under
solaris/intel or linux/anything?

except for the occasional java page hang netscape-comm 4.6 runs for

like it's doing its black hole thing on ram.

mozilla looks promising though.
