POLL: Netscape 6.2 vs IE 6

[Alex]

self-explanatory really... ive always been a netscape guy but with IE6 being included in just about every microsoft software (winxp, officexp) its kinda hard to stay away from... id like to think that netscape is still king though...

 

[Alex]

*bump*

[bigrash]

my vote is for ie6

OP 0.86%
NS 8.47%
IE 81.78%

I've been going there for a year now, and the page always displays over 80% in favor of IE

Proabably, but your not in the REAL World tho

Does netscape still loads as slow as before, or does it loads as fast as IE 5.5-6?.

 

[RudeBoie]

Converted to IE since IE 4.0. I always though Netscape was pretty, though.

 

[ucvb6]

netscape 6.2 still loads slow. but it looks nice.

still voted for IE, although i havent tried 6.o yet

Internet Explorer canes Netscape in terms of speed and rendering accuracy. I wouldn't touch Netscape with a 20 foot pole.

 

[Alex]

lol

ive always liked netscape and the slow loading shouldnt be an issue with faster processors nowadays...

oh well i guess ill stick to IE...

Opera guys. Ditch that other crap and go with the best.

 

[Agent004]

Opera is not free, like NS or IE, right?

 

[sandorski]

NS 6.2 here. Loads up fast(IMO), and displays pages faster than IE5.5(haven't tried IE6).

 

[syzygy]

netscape 6.1 and 6.2 load pages slow. they are beautiful and with opera make up the best
ie alternatives anywhere. i think i've covered all the bases

 

[dawman45]

IE all the way...Netscape is a big slow fruit basket...whatever that means

 

[n0cmonkey]

Im hooked on Mozilla (for supported platforms)!

Does Netscape still crash a lot at random like it did under the 4.xx versions? I've been using nothing but IE since then.

I did not have many problems with 6.1 beta for Mac OS X. I havent really used it much for Windows though. The little bit I have used it it seemed more stable and usable than 4.x

I like Netscape 6.2 in both Windows and Linux. It seems faster to me on my machine and I have tried IE 6 but I really don't see a speed differrence when compared to IE 5.5 but that's just my own personal experince. Personally I use Mozilla though a lot more then NS 6.2 or IE.

P.S. MOZILLA 0.96 IS OUT!!!

Opera does have a free mode where you surf without paying anything to www.opera.com as long as you bear with an ad. That is OK I mean.

 

[Sunner]

Opera all the way!

Konqueror on Linux.

Mozilla is still too slow for me.

 

[Miramonti]

Other: Opera!

Opera 6 is a must do.

 

[Alex]

opera is not as fast as ie...
