hm... my guestimate would be the millions of internet users that think mozilla/netscape is crap.

yogi was talking about Galeon. I myself prefer Galeon's GUI over Mozilla's because it's much more lightweight, and I like the extra features it provides. It might not be as pretty Mozilla's skinned GUI, but I can put up with that.

Ugh. That is one thing that really gets on my skin - people who put Mozilla and Netscape in the same boat. Ugh, ugh, ugh.

Well they are pretty much identical and morphed from the same code.

No! They aren't. And it's for this precise attitude that people don't give Mozilla a chance. I hate Netscape (*as it is today*) - I agree with all you guys when you say that is 'sucks'.

Read this article and this loose FAQ for more information.

Mmm sure they are. Netscape 6 is created from Mozilla's source code.

The only difference is the fact that mozilla is an organization and Netscape is a company. What makes the product different is the fact that Netscape add features to the code such as plugins and other non-open-source enhancements.

It's entirely different. They are both based on the Gecko engine, yes. They both share a few core developers, yes. They both recieve funding from Netscape Communications, yes. That's where the similarity ends.

Im too tired to debate.

I found this quote quite funny....

Netscape Communicator/Navigator is one of two major web browsers currently being used on the World-Wide-Web, made by Netscape Communications. The other being Microsoft's Internet Explorer.

Sorry, I don't get what your screen shot is trying to prove?

If you don't want it looking the same, just apply a new skin :-)

You are kinda contradicting yourself.

You've been making a big point about how they aren't similar but you agree they look identical Laugh

Thats what the image proved ;)

Because they are both using 'skins'. You can change the look of the browser with two mouse clicks. Just hit 'View => Apply Theme' and you can even get it to look exactly like IE if you wanted to!
