It's hard to believe that that was what Mozilla, the worlds worst web browser, grew out of...

[Kazan]

you clearly have been doing too much LSD to say mozilla is the worlds worst browser

IE, Help -> About Internet Explorer:

Based on NCSA Mosaic. NCSA Mosaic(TM); was developed at the National Center for Supercomputing Applications at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.

it's obvious to me that mosaic was the basis for the world's most widely-used browser... and i said 'widely used' not 'best'

Just because it's free and open source doesn't automatically make it any good. Opera make a far better browser than mozilla.org ever could yet don't get the respect they deserve simply because they remain a commercial enterprise and charge for their product.

I don't know 'bout Mosaic, but There's nothing wrong with Mozilla. I use it and find it better than IE. mmm tabbed windows (yes, Opera has this too).


Anyway, I have been trying out Blackdiamond 0.2 and it's pretty good. There are still bugs and the mouse gestures take a bit of getting used to, though. Based on Phoenix.

Opera had it first, Mozilla borrowed it and didn't implement it even half as well.

do you make astoundingly moronic assumptions on purpose? or are you trying to do it to annoy me

im not saying it's great JUST BECAUSE IT'S OPEN SOURCE - if you think that was my reasoning then you're one hell of a moron

Calm down, this always happens when you have a point to make. I'm fairly sure I'm not the only one who's bored of it now.

ATi is the largest, most well known non-nVidia graphics chip maker there is. Red Hat Linux is the largest, most well known non-Microsoft OS there is. Mozilla is the largest, most well known non-Microsoft browser there is. Is that enough or should I explain it further?

And yet you sit here debating internet browsers and attempting to mock me by referring to my avatar.

Of course you get out Kazan. And everyone here believes you.
