Try /usr/local - that's where mine ended up. "Installed so fast" sounds suspicious though - normally a download instalation takes ages.
As for browser wars - Netscape has two advantages - it's an integrated mail client and browser, and it's cross-platform (the latter being the main reason I use it - we only have one Linux box at work, so I'm often working from Windows). 6.2 is not perfect, but much less buggy than the appalling 6.0. AIM tends not to work, but that's because AOL tends not to work.
