People still use netscape 4?  Why?

I remember using it years ago -- there was no choice, mozilla was in
version 0.7 and rather flaky (not to mention too bloated for a 200 MHz
Pentium).  It was absolutely essential to keep java and javascript
turned off, and even then netscape would keep crashing, I had an alias
set up for "rm -f ~/.netscape/lock".  Now we have mozilla,
mozilla-firebird, epiphany, opera (all with native FreeBSD versions),
and the konqueror in kde-cvs (to be kde 3.2) is looking very good too
-- and all of these are vastly better than IE 6, let alone NS 4, which
truly belongs on the garbage-heap of history.
