I just downloaded it. released to public in around 12 days

it seems so far like firefox with a skin. However, the ability to easy switch to IE is pretty useful.

still supports extensions and themes. but the firefox themes obviously don't work on it.

only 9 megs

looks promising.

When netscape became unprofitable it was bought by AOL to be made into AOL browser.

then when AOL started using IE as main browser a few years ago, it died.
or rather it was given a million dollars and became the mozilla foundation.

now Netscape is being revived as firefox. the new netscape is based on firefox 1.0
