Netscape 6.2: This one works [NewsForge]
Nov. 13, 2001

In an article at NewsForge.com, Robin "Roblimo" Miller writes that Netscape 6.2 on Linux seems to have finally surpassed an important usability threshold. Miller writes . . .

"I have had experiences with Mozilla and earlier versions of Netscape that, to put it kindly, were less than satisfactory. As someone who works online all day, a browser is my single most important piece of software, and browsers have been my biggest disappointment in Linux. Now I'm using Netscape 6.2 and, for the first time in years, I am happy with the browser on my screen . . ."

"Yes, Opera is wonderful and Konqueror is coming along nicely, and I am happy to see both of them working to provide alternatives to AOL/Netscape and Microsoft. But I rather preferred Netscape's display style, and had gradually gotten accustomed to having my Web browsing and email all tied up in one neat package . . ."

"Except for the crashes, I was basically satisfied with Netscape. What I really wanted in a browser was Netscape -- only better . . ."

"Netscape 6.2 gives me more flexibility than any other email program I've used in the past, in any operating system . . . I think we have a winner here."
