[newbie] WOW, Mozilla M18

2000-10-17 Thread Jon Doe

Is it just me or has there been major improvment from M11 to M18.
On my box anyhow M18 screams! As fast if not faster than netscape 4.75 and much
faster than Opera so far.
But why oh why did they change the GUI to look more like netscape I
actually liked the M17 GUI.
Anyone think I'm nuts about M18 running good?

Oops, I meant M17 not M11



Hmm..in my experience it seems (mostly) as fast as NS 4.73 but definitely
not as fast as Opera.  
maybe its just my machine or the way I have opera setup(linux newbie) but it is
really really slow for me. I worshiped Opera on Windows when I still ran
windows.

The nightly builds tend to be even better than the milestones and far
better than the Netscape previews. The build I'm using is as great. It's
progressing so fast now that it's really interesting to watch. Like seeing
a building go up.

 Yes, the builds have been steady getting better. I've downloaded everyone since
 M13 on, and each new release just builds upon itself.

  After using M18 for less than an hour I made some dumb statements here
  about it being too "Netscape-like".  Is it possible that you've got it set
  up with the "classic" theme, which is very NS-like?  If so, simply switch
  to "modern" and I think you'll be happier.
 
 Thanks so much for pointing that out! I hate the Netscape Classic look, I've
 always thought Netscape was a very ugly browser. But I love the Modern and Blue
 look, and before I knew you could change that, I stuck with Netscape6PR3
 because I couldn't stand looking at that Classic Netscape.

  Seems real good to me.  I've been surprised by the stability which IS much
  better than Opera.
 
 I also really like Mozilla. It's so much better than that crap known as
 Netscape 4.x. It won't be too much longer before it's finally out of beta and
 it has it's real "official" release.
