Is Netscape 8.1 slow on slow machines?
Version 7.2 seems much faster than 8.1 on this 350 Mhz machine.
I just saw the recommended configuration of 1 Ghz & 256 MB of RAM, which is
vastly different than the minimum of 233 Mhz & 64 MB of RAM that I saw earlier
yesterday. Yup, I can't expect this to work at a quick pace. Sounds like M$
engineers have infected Netscape spec writers with unrealistic minimum
requirement specs. That just makes stubborn computer users insist on using
programs on systems that are too slow for normal use. Netscape 8.1 worked fine
on a 1.6 Ghz machine I installed it on yesterday. So I was a little disturbed
that it worked so slow on my 350 Mhz machine. Thanks. I'll keep my Netscape 7.2
going and take this Netscape 8.1 off of my slow machine.
