RE: Netscape 6 preview release 1

The first thing I've Noticed, is that most of the JavaScript stuff doesn't
work...
 
window.open and the DHTML stuff don't work. The Display comes up great.. they've
fixed alotta bug's... but I guess since this is only the preview...we can't
judge it quite yet. 

Again, the Engine seems to be very fast...

It is better at standards as far as I can tell..

I'm downloading it now, but according to my Mac friend's they aren't too
happy.

Is is better at standards than the older versions of Netscape. IMO,
Netscape as been pretty pitiful in the past with regard to W3C.
