If you use the Quick Launch feature, then it'll load even quicker than
IE does. As for taking up space and chewing up RAM, sounds to me like your system could use an overhaul if it can't handle something like NS. As far as IE being open source, if they don't release the source, then it's not *open*, hence not open source. And Mozilla is funded by Netscape (which is funded by AOL, which is funded...), so I don't think Microsoft would even *want* to use them as a basis for anything. At any rate, Netscape is still better, since you didn't refute any of my other claims. ;) [View Quote] > Netscape burns through my precious system ram like it doesn't exist.
