      From: dankaye@nowhere.info              Netscape 8 is a piece of crap. No surprise there, since AOL took it       over.              It does not include mail, AOL wants you to go to AOL website or       Netscape web site to get your mail, so you will have to look at their       ads. You don't think AOL is going to give you a mail program without       ads, do you? And they knew if they put it in your home mail program       you'd either 1) be offended or 2) find a way to disable them; so they       just avoided the issue by making you go to the web for your mail.              It's the AOL way. It's all about ads.              F___ AOL and so F___ Netscape 8.              I guess the way to go for now is to stick with Netscape 7.2 until it       is outmoded.              Then, when the time comes, let's hope that Firefox/Thunderbird have       their shit together, to switch over to that configuration. Actually,       they are not TOO bad, now, if you feel the need to upgrade, but I       found them both inferior to Netscape 7.2 when I downloaded the       previous versions of them both.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
