Galeon?

[FOBSIDE]

Has anyone heard of a web browser for Linux called Galeon? My friend is raving about it and telling me to try it out. Since I'm at work right now I can't try it out but I was curious as to what everyone else has heard or experienced with it.

I've used it and it's pretty good, but not spectacular. I think it's based on the mozilla stuff and it's packaged as the GNOME browser.

You're right, it is based on Mozilla and packaged as the GNOME browser.

random question:

Why does netscape still exist when opera, mozilla/galeon and konqueror are all all but proven to be better browsers?

because AOL is stubborn.

I thought aol used IE, or is there aol for linux? I don't use aol (or linux much anymore).

AOL owns netscape. i believe they are using netscape in their latest AOL although ive never been an AOL user.
